Offering Prayers for Festival Safety at the Tutelary Deity of Yamashiro Onsen
About this spot
Long revered by the local community as the tutelary shrine of Yamashiro Onsen, this historic shrine hosts performances of Noh theater. Positioned on a rise overlooking the hot-spring town, the shrine grounds offer views of the roofscape of the hot-spring streets. Before the evening festival, this quiet sanctuary is the perfect place to pause, catch your breath, and offer your prayers.
