About this Shrine

Wooded Sanctuary Shrine, dedicated to the kami of forests and woodlands, is located in the heart of Japan's beautiful Fuji-Hakone-Izu National Park. Established in 1572 during the Azuchi-Momoyama period, it is a treasured Shinto shrine that honors the sacred bond between nature and humanity. The shrine's architecture, featuring traditional Japanese garden design with carefully pruned trees and stone lanterns, embodies the harmony between humans and the natural world.

Cultural Significance

This shrine is closely associated with the forest spirit, known as 'Kinugasa-yama no Kami', who is believed to protect the surrounding forests and woodlands. During the autumnal equinox festival, local communities gather at the shrine to honor this deity and offer prayers for a bountiful harvest.
