About this Shrine

Located in the coastal town of Kesennuma, Miyagi Prefecture,諏訪神社 is a Shinto shrine dedicated to Inari Okami, the kami of rice and fertility. The shrine is situated near the mouth of the Senematsu River, which is believed to be a sacred site due to its proximity to the sea. With a long history dating back to the 8th century,諏訪神社 has been an important cultural and spiritual center for the local community.

Cultural Significance

諏訪神社 is famous for its association with the legendary giant, Senematsu no okami, who was said to have been worshipped by the local people. The shrine also hosts an annual festival in autumn, known as the 'Kesennuma Autumn Festival', which features traditional performances and offerings to Inari Okami.
