Tsunemiya Shrine
The enshrined deity is Empress Jingū, wife of Emperor Chuai at Kibitsu Shrine, revered as the "Goddess of Childbirth." On July 22 each year, a nationally rare ritual called the Sōsan Festival takes place, where the enshrined deity of Emperor Chuai crosses the sea by boat. The National Treasure "Chōsen Bell" is enshrined here.
