An ancient cedar tree forest in Tozawa-mura village (near Mogami river), where one can experience shinrin'yoku yoga.

The shrine got registered in the list of National Important Cultural Properties in 2001 for its importance in the history of the Shugendo religion.

Once a temple, now a ruin, this is a beautiful alternative hike on Mt. Haguro.

The shrine worships Ukemochi no Kami (goddess of cereals and food), the Empress Jingu, and the legendary Yamato Takeru.

Its moss-covered stone path and its thatch-roofed shrine (National Important Cultural Property) give this place a timeless atmosphere.

Though it was first built in 650, the current building is a reconstruction from the late 18th century.

The shrine was first built during the 10th century. Behind the shrine, the giant cedar tree, which age has been estimated over 1000 years old, has been registered in the National Natural Monuments lists in 1927.
