About this Shrine

Located in the scenic town of Kitamieshi, Hokkaido's longest river, Ishikari River, flows through the grounds of this Shinto shrine. Dedicated to the kami, Tsuneyuki and Tsuneko, patron deities of fishermen, the shrine is a sacred site for the local fishing community. The shrine's architecture blends traditional Japanese designs with modern elements, reflecting its role as a cultural and spiritual center in rural Hokkaido.

Cultural Significance

The shrine hosts a lively annual 'Sakura Matsuri' festival in late March, celebrating the arrival of spring with traditional performances, food stalls, and festivities dedicated to Tsuneyuki and Tsuneko. Locals also believe that on the seventh day after the new year (Oshogatsu), the shrine's kami grant good fortune to fishermen for the coming year.
