About this Shrine

Outakushimaisa Shrine, located in the scenic Lake Toma area of Hokkaido, is dedicated to the Shinto god of fertility and agriculture, Outakushi. The shrine's main hall was built in 1897, but its origins date back to the Edo period when it served as a family altar for the local daimyo. Today, visitors can experience traditional Japanese hospitality while enjoying the stunning natural surroundings.

Cultural Significance

Outakushimaisa Shrine is known for its cherry blossom viewing festivities, held annually around late March. According to local legend, the shrine's location was chosen because it boasts a sacred cypress tree, believed to possess spiritual energy.
