About this place

It stands in the grounds of Kami-no-Yashiro, the local tutelary shrine, sharing a fence with Shitomi-jinja. It enshrines a guardian of the embankments that protect the district from the floods of the Miyagawa. Of the 125 shrines, only this one, Shitomi-jinja and Uchikake-jinja ever held court rank, raised from the upper fifth to the lower fourth grade in 1128.
