About this place
Behind and to the right of the main building of Tsukiyomi-no-miya. The sessha and massha of the 125 shrines normally have no offering box; this one does. The moat around three sides of the grounds is what remains of a branch of the Miyagawa that once ran here. The deity is held to have opened this land for settlement.
