About this Shrine

Located in the town of Nishimatsuura, Saga Prefecture, Nemuri no Makoto Shrine is a small but historic Shinto shrine dedicated to the god of longevity and protection. The shrine's name, Nemuri no Makoto, roughly translates to 'the tranquil god,' reflecting its serene surroundings and peaceful atmosphere. While I couldn't find information on the primary kami enshrined at this shrine, it's possible that it may be connected to a local deity associated with the area.
