Kawashima Shrine
Ukishima Hachimangu had to relocate due to river improvement work of Yoshinogawa, so this Kawashima Shrine was newly built with a spacious ground in Shiroyama in October 1916 to enshrine together,along with many. other gods from the shrines in old Kawashima-cho, such as Homutawake Tennou (Emperor Ojin), Ame no Hiwashi, and Sugawara no Michizane Kou. The 75 Offerings Shinto Ritual (Nanajugo-zen no Shinji), which is unique as a special religious event in this prefecture since ancient times, is held at the time of the autumn festival on the 4th Sunday in October every year. In this event, people offer the gods foods from the sea, mountains, fields and rivers to show appreciation for agriculture and the harvest.
