About this Shrine

The Toi-oki-no-miya Shrine, also known as the Toyooka Shrine, is a Shinto shrine located in the city of Hitachi, Ibaraki Prefecture. It is dedicated to the Shinto deity Inari Okami, who is revered for his role in agriculture and prosperity. The shrine is famous for its annual Toi-oki Matsuri festival, which takes place in August and features traditional dances and offerings to Inari. Visitors can enjoy the beautiful gardens and historic buildings, including the main hall and the five-story pagoda.

Cultural Significance

Inari is often depicted with foxes, as they are believed to be his sacred animals. The shrine also has connections to the mythological figure of Susanoo-no-Mikoto, who is said to have created rice and rice fields. During the Toi-oki Matsuri festival, visitors can participate in a ritual dance called 'Odori,' which is believed to promote good luck and prosperity.
