Izusan Shrine
Izusan Shrine is also the birthplace of Izu place names.
Since it is the place where Minamoto no Yoritomo and Hojo Masako were united, it is also famous as a shrine of Marriage. In the Edo period, it was called Izu Daigongen, and it is a shrine with a history that Tokugawa Ieyasu also visited.
If you climb the long stone steps to the precincts, you can enjoy a wonderful view overlooking Atami City and the sea.
It takes about 1 hour to get from the main shrine to the main shrine via the Haruka Shrine, Hakusan Shrine, and the Yumeijin headquarters. It is also recommended to visit the temple while slowly climbing the mountain road.
About 800 steps below the main shrine is the Sashiyu Shrine, where the god of hot springs is enshrined.
Every year, a grand festival is held for 3 days from April 14 ~ 16, and many people visit.
