The central shrine of the Niihama Taiko Drum Festival that colors Niihama's autumn, commanding deep devotion from local residents. Surrounded by trees, the shrine grounds offer a calm, distinctly Niihama atmosphere simply by walking along the prayer path. It's also recommended to pray for the safety of your beach swim in this quiet sanctuary, different from the summer festival season. Abundant shade makes it relatively comfortable even during times of intense sunlight.
Tips
The shrine grounds feature paved prayer paths that are easy to navigate with strollers. Don't forget a hat and water during summer. After paying respects, head to Aeon Mall Niihama for lunch.
Best time to visit
Approximately 45 minutes required. Late morning offers a peaceful atmosphere for prayer.
