📍Tamanhiko Shrine This is the most prestigious shrine in the prefecture, and enshrines Ama-Tamanhiko, the guardian deity of agriculture and industry, and Sarutahiko, the deity of road safety and protection. On the first three days of the New Year, over 300,000 visitors from inside and outside the prefecture visit the shrine, causing major traffic jams every year, and it has become an annual event. As the Ichinomiya of Awa Province, it has long been known as "Owasa-han" and has been worshiped as a familiar presence for a long time. The inner shrine, Mine Shrine, is located at the top of Mount Taima, behind the main shrine, about 90 minutes (one way) up the mountain.

#2024 Travel Review **Oma Shrine** The happiest part of 2024 was going to Tokushima! The Yabigu Shrine is a historic shrine with a secluded environment suitable for worship and meditation. The architectural style here is simple and elegant, which gives people a strong cultural atmosphere. At the shrine, you can quietly make a wish and feel the sacred breath that will give the whole journey more depth.
