If you visit Takachiho Gorge, we recommend that you also visit "Takachiho Shrine ". Takachiho Shrine was built about 1,800 years ago and enshrines the deity involved in the descent of the grandchildren. The beautifully carved main shrine and the iron guardian dogs, which are said to have been donated by Minamoto no Yoritomo, are designated as national important cultural properties.

Two married couple cedars with connected roots greet visitors on the left side of the shrine pavilion. It is said that holding hands with the person you love will bring safety to your family and prosperity to your descendants, while praying alone will be effective. As the head shrine of 88 shrines, it is believed to offer a wide range of benefits, such as marriage, protection from bad luck, and marital bliss. The nightly kagura performances that have been held in Takachiho since ancient times are said to have originated from the dance performed by Amaterasu no Mikoto in front of Amaterasu no Mikami when he hid behind Iwato (the cave of the sun). It might be interesting to immerse yourself in the world of mythological drama for a while.
