About this Shrine

Located on a small island in the Izu Strait, Maijima Inari Shrine is one of Japan's oldest and most sacred Shinto shrines dedicated to the god of rice, fertility, and prosperity. Dedicated to Inari, the Shinto deity often depicted with multiple hands holding sake barrels, this shrine is renowned for its beautiful architecture, peaceful atmosphere, and stunning views of the surrounding waters.

Cultural Significance

As with many Shinto shrines in Japan, Maijima Inari Shrine is deeply connected to the cycles of nature. The shrine is particularly revered during the autumn harvest season and the spring equinox, when locals perform rituals to ensure a bountiful harvest and good fortune.
