This shrine, located about ten minutes by bus from Nakadomari, is famous for its rice planting rites on the 15th lunar day of the5th month, and its festival on the 25th day of the 6th month! The building is partly in Okinawan style, with clay tiles covering the roof, a walkway with pillars and a stone torii gate. This type of building is unique to the outer islands of Okinawa. It is not really a shrine (where a kami might reside), the dunchi being rather a place where the Chinbei (high priestess) prays.
