Overview

Founded in 1146, it has undergone several renovations to reach its current state. The grounds feature impressive structures, including a gate, a worship hall, and the main sanctuary, creating a serene and majestic atmosphere. The main sanctuary, in particular, is designated as a Shizuoka Prefecture Cultural Property, and its exquisite architecture is a must-see. The shrine also offers panoramic views of Shizuoka city. This is a perfect spot for those seeking a tranquil escape from the urban bustle. The surrounding area also offers attractions such as the Shizuoka Sengen Shrine Treasure Museum and the Shizuoka Sengen Shrine Garden. The museum showcases valuable materials that tell the history and culture of the shrine. The garden is a beautiful space with flowers blooming throughout the year, ideal for a relaxing stroll.
