About this Shrine

Tsukasa-yama Shrine, also known as Kamaishi-gu and later known as Hogarashi-jinja, is a Shinto shrine located in the Kamaishi City of Iwate Prefecture. The shrine was originally dedicated to the deity of rice and millet, but over time its focus shifted towards hunting and fishing. Today it remains one of the most important shrines for those involved in these industries.

Cultural Significance

Hogarashi-jinja is also famous for its association with the local folklore figure of Hakuro-san, a wise old woman said to possess supernatural healing powers. The shrine holds an annual festival in July, which includes traditional performances and offerings to the deity.
