The charm of Takejinja Shrine in Meiwa-cho: the harmony of history and nature

Takejinja Shrine is a shrine with a long history in Meiwa Town and is beloved by locals.

In particular, the beautiful flower chozu (water basin) and seasonal scenery attract many worshippers. The flower chozu (water basin) is popular as a photogenic spot, with flowers changing with the seasons.

A walk through the grounds surrounded by bamboo forest will soothe your soul.

After worshiping at the shrine, we recommend taking a break at the cafe "Shokupan to Coffee Daidai," located just a few minutes' walk away.
