About this Shrine

御神木 Shrine is a Shinto shrine located in Tottori Prefecture, dedicated to the worship of Sashibōsai Jikō, a kami associated with trees and forests. The shrine's main hall is designed in the traditional Japanese architectural style of Heian period, featuring a vermillion torii gate and intricately carved wooden decorations. Visitors can explore the surrounding forested area, which is said to be inhabited by the kami, and participate in various Shinto rituals and ceremonies throughout the year.

Cultural Significance

The shrine is famous for its unique festival, Sashibōsai no Matsuri, which takes place in late September. During this festival, visitors can see a massive log being carried on rollers from the forested area to the shrine, symbolizing the annual migration of the kami.
