About this Shrine

Located in the city of Sakurako, Ibaraki Prefecture, Koroku Shrine is a Shinto shrine dedicated to the kami Koroku, known as the 'God of the Peach Tree'. The shrine's architecture is typical of rural Japanese shrines, with a simple wooden torii gate and a single-story main hall. The shrine's grounds feature several traditional Shinto landscaping elements, including a moss-covered stone lantern and a peony-lined path.

Cultural Significance

Koroku Shrine is closely associated with the mythology of peach trees, which are considered sacred in Shintoism. The shrine also holds an annual festival, known as 'Akitsumatsuri', which honors the spirit of Koroku and features traditional dances and food offerings.
