Next stop: Central venue of the Sansha Grand Festival and starting point of the sacred palanquin processionAbout this spot
A historic shrine situated on a small hill, known for receiving performances of Hachinohe's local folk art "Enburi." The Sansha Grand Festival is a joint celebration of three shrines collectively called the "Three Shrines," and this shrine plays an important role. The quiet grounds at the top of the long stone steps offer a peaceful atmosphere perfect for before the summer festival begins.
Tips
About 10 minutes by car from Hachinohe's central street. There are stone steps, so wear comfortable walking shoes. The grounds have plenty of shade, making it cool even in summer.
Best time to visit
About 40 minutes. Early afternoon is quiet with fewer visitors.
