Introduction
Ikuta Shrine is a historically renowned shrine that has left its mark in "Nihon Shoki" and "Makura no Soshi." The shrine features a vermilion-colored main hall and is surrounded by the lush Ikuta Forest to the north. There are also several beautiful spots within the shrine grounds, such as plum blossoms and irises. In the past, it was the territory of the shrine. The shrine is dedicated to the goddess Amaterasu, and visitors come throughout the year to pray for happiness and good health. Despite experiencing flooding and damage from wars in the past, as well as being affected by the Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake in 1995, it has always been rebuilt.
