About this Shrine

愛宕神社 is a Shinto shrine located in Sendai, Miyagi Prefecture, dedicated to Amaterasu Ōmikami, the sun goddess and deified ancestor of the Imperial Family.

Visitors can experience the peaceful atmosphere by strolling through the garden and paying respects at the main shrine hall.
