This shrine houses the sacred spirits that were split about 60 years ago
from Taikodani Inari Shrine in neighboring Shimane Prefecture. It is
said the shrine originated from a story where a God posing as a white
fox appeared in the dream of a local fisherman, telling him to enshrine
it in the area. The most impressive part of the shrine is the 123 shrine
gates that stand in a row stretching over 100m (328ft.)
