Yuzenn Shrine
Founded in 749 (the first year of Tenpyō Shōhō). The shrine venerates the hot springs of Atami
According to a divine oracle that spoke of a hot spring with the power to cure illness, a small shrine was erected to enshrine the deity. Since then, the shrine has protected Atami’s hot springs.
To give thanks to Atami’s springs and pray that their flow never ceases, grand festivals are held every spring and autumn.
The shrine’s votive plaques bear a long list of inn names, including those of inns that no longer exist, offering a glimpse into the history of modern hot-spring ryokan.
In front of the shrine, the great hot spring source known as Oyu bubbles up; its intermittent geyser is also a local attraction.

Bougainvillea
Along the Itokawa River that runs through central Atami City, between Onaribashi and Itokawabashi (about 180 meters), bougainvillea vines arch over and cover the stream.
These bougainvillea produce tropical, vividly colored bracts—red, magenta, purple and more—from May through October each year.
Near Itokawabashi, a staircase leads down to the river, creating a hidden photo spot.
Yellow Hypericum ‘Hidecoat’ adds a splash of color and makes the scene even more lovely.
The display peaks around the same time as the jacaranda, from late May to mid-June, so be sure to visit then as well.
<Bougainvillea>
A tropical shrub in the Nyctaginaceae family native to Brazil in South America. While it blooms year-round in tropical regions, in Japan it flowers from May to October.
What looks like the flower is actually the bract; three bracts gather together, and the small white true flower blooms at their center. The bracts show leaf veins and resemble leaves. Because the bracts are thin, they flutter in the wind. Bract colors include red, white, pink, orange, yellow, and various bicolors.

The spacious Ocean Lounge, with its high ceiling, is a popular spot to relax while gazing at the sea stretching before you. The Onsuijoku Torukka offers supreme relaxation under the moonlight, with carefully selected sofas and natural aromatherapy scents.

Imamiya Shrine (Imamiya Jinja)
Located in the western district of Atami, Imamiya Shrine has long been revered as a place where heartfelt wishes are granted. The enshrined deities are Kotoshironushi no Kami and Okuninushi no Kami. The shrine’s founding dates back more than 1,700 years, traditionally said to have been during the reign of Emperor Nintoku.
The legend of Minamoto no Yoritomo is also well known.
When Yoritomo was exiled to Izu and became lost in the mountains of Atami, he prayed at a small shrine beneath a great camphor tree and was able to evade his pursuers safely. Afterwards, he showed his gratitude by contributing to the shrine’s buildings.
The annual Grand Festival takes place every October 19 and 20.
