About this Shrine

Koburo Shrine and Sanefu Shrine are two closely related Shinto shrines located in Hakone, Kanagawa Prefecture. The two shrines share a common history dating back to the 17th century when the Izu Peninsula was an important center for Shugendo and Shintoism. The shrines were originally dedicated to Inari Okami, with Koburo Shrine focusing on agriculture and Sanefu Shrine on fire prevention and purification. Visitors can explore the serene gardens and peaceful surroundings, which offer a tranquil escape from the bustling city.

Cultural Significance

The shrines are known for their unique ' Sanefu' festival, which takes place in May and features rituals to purify and protect homes from fire. The festivals also include traditional dances and performances to ward off evil spirits.
