Aramatsuri-no-miya

First in rank among the auxiliary shrines of Naiku, reached by descending the stone steps north of the main sanctuary. It enshrines the aramitama of Amaterasu-Omikami — the deity's vigorous, outwardly acting aspect. At each rebuilding it is the first auxiliary shrine to be renewed; in the 62nd cycle this took place on 10 October 2013, right after Naiku itself.
