About this Shrine

Located in the heart of Hokkaido, 折戸神社奥の院 (Toshoji Ryokan) is a historic Shinto shrine famous for its unique thatched-roof structure resembling a traditional Hokkaidan ryokan. The shrine was originally built as a memorial to Tokugawa Ietsugu, a Japanese daimyo who served the Tokugawa shogunate during the Edo period.

Cultural Significance

Toshoji Ryokan is one of the few Shinto shrines in Japan that has retained its traditional architecture, which reflects the unique cultural heritage of Hokkaido. The shrine's design also features a distinctive ' futatsu' style roof, where two roofs overlap to create a sense of depth.
