About this Shrine

Located in the heart of Yamagata Prefecture, Hot Spring Temple is a Shinto shrine dedicated to the worship of local deities believed to be connected to the region's natural hot springs. The shrine's architecture reflects traditional Japanese styles, with a main hall constructed from cedar wood and tiled roofs. A tranquil atmosphere pervades the temple grounds, inviting visitors to relax and rejuvenate in harmony with nature.

Cultural Significance

As an important Shinto shrine in Yamagata Prefecture, Hot Spring Temple is often associated with the local deity, Ryujin (Dragon God), who is revered for his powers to purify and heal. During the annual Otsutsumi Festival, held in late August, devotees reenact a centuries-old ritual involving the cleansing of a nearby hot spring using sacred water.
