About this Shrine

Indra Shrine, a Shinto shrine located in Matsuyama City, Ehime Prefecture, is dedicated to the god Amaterasu Omikami and Susanoo-no-Mikoto. The shrine was built on the site where a rice paddy once existed, which was believed to be the place where the legendary rice goddess, Tsukiyomi no Okami, appeared. Visitors can experience traditional Japanese architecture, including the iconic torii gate, and explore the shrine's various shrines and halls.

Cultural Significance

This shrine is closely associated with rice cultivation and fertility. During the Obon festival, lanterns are hung along the path leading to the shrine to ward off evil spirits and bring good luck to farmers.
