Hasami Shrine

 


Hasami Shrine is located in its namesake, Hasami, so is probably considered the ujigami of the area.


It is located adjacent to Tozenji Temple where I was heading to, which suggests that in the past the shrine and temple were the same institution.


The shrine records say that it was established about 650 years ago, but the temple claims a much older history.


The kami enshrined here are listed as Amaterasu and Susano. A little unusual as they would often be found as a triad with Tsukiyomi, but not here.


The previous post was on Sumiyoshi Shrine in Haiki.
