About this Shrine

New Isuzu Shrine, located in the heart of Sapporo, is dedicated to Emperor Jimmu's imperial ancestor, Emperor Ojin. As a Shinto shrine, it embodies the spiritual essence of the region, honoring the kami that reside within the land and its people. The shrine's architecture reflects the Heian period's aesthetic, with a main hall and a small shrine for Emperor Ojin, symbolizing the connection between heaven and earth.

Cultural Significance

New Isuzu Shrine is closely tied to the legend of Emperor Ojin, who is said to have established his capital in the area. The shrine also plays a role in the Sapporo Odori, a traditional dance festival held annually during the Cherry Blossom season.
