Takachiho Shrine, the guardian deity of Takachiho where myth stories breathe. The solemn shrine buildings and the long history-felt cedar avenues quietly calm the hearts of visitors. In this place wrapped in deep faith and silence, the time spent clasping hands purifies yourself and gives deep peace and new vitality, a special holy ground. There are "Meoto Sugi" (couple cedars) in the precincts where two cedars are connected at the root, also popular as a matchmaking spot. Walking quietly through the cedar avenues and taking a deep breath, you will surely feel a mysterious sensation as if you are wrapped in the world of myth. It is a wonderful sanctuary to heal daily fatigue and quietly face your inner self.
