It enshrines Kuni-no-tokotachi-no Mikoto, the eternal god of the land, Susanoo-no Mikoto, the younger brother of the Sun Goddess Amaterasu, Yamato Takeru, the semi-legendary prince of the Yamato dynasty, and Inadahime-no Mikoto, one of the wives of the god Susanoo-no Mikoto.
In the back of the Worship Hall (Haiden) is a beautiful main hall with beautiful sculptures protected by fencing.
On the east side of the Worship Hall is a large cedar tree, which seems to be a fusion of three trees. Near the cedar tree is a group of stone monuments, the Nijusan-ya-to (a stone monument built to commemorate the Buddhist lecture meeting held at night on the 23rd of each month), united traveler’s guardian deities (Dososhin Deities) statue, and many horse-headed goddess of mercy (Bato Kannon) statues. Weeping cherry trees growing on the west side of the shrine grounds bloom beautifully in spring.
