About this Shrine

Seto Inari Shrine is a Shinto shrine located in the town of Ton, Kakuda-machi, Matsuyama City, Ehime Prefecture. However, the shrine we are focusing on today is 盆栽神社 in Kagawa Prefecture. This shrine is dedicated to Seto Inari, a kami known for his connection to agriculture and prosperity.

Visitors can see beautifully crafted wooden tablets with prayers written on them, as well as stunning cherry blossom trees.

Cultural Significance
