About this Shrine

Thatagisan Shrine, located in the picturesque town of Yonsan in Tottori Prefecture, is a revered Shinto shrine dedicated to the kami that inhabits the nearby Thatagisan Peak. The shrine's architecture reflects traditional Japanese styles, with a vermilion torii gate and a tiled roof. Its history dates back to the 17th century, when it was built as a humble shrine to honor the local gods. Over time, the shrine has gained significance due to its unique connection with the natural environment of the surrounding mountains.

Cultural Significance

Thatagisan Shrine is associated with the mountain spirit kami, Ittotsu no Ichiman Gami. The shrine also celebrates a traditional autumnal festival called 'Aki Matsuri', which features local dances and performances.
