Tsukuba Shrine

Tsukuba Shrine is a historic shrine with various shrines donated by Tokugawa Iemitsu, the third shogun, standing on its grounds. There are also important cultural properties within the shrine grounds, and prayers for weddings, matchmaking, traffic safety, and warding off evil are conducted every day. In addition, the summit of Mount Nantai and the summit of Mount Nyotai each enshrine the ancestral gods of the Japanese people and are known as power spots. When visiting Mount Tsukuba, be sure to tour these historic buildings and receive blessings with a stamp or amulet.

One of the features of Tsukuba Shrine is the mysterious atmosphere surrounded by nature. Not only is it an ancient shrine, but it also has a history of over 3,000 years of faith in the sacred mountain "Mount Tsukuba." The shrine enshrines the ancestral gods of the Japanese people on the summits of Mount Nantai and Mount Nyotai, and offers various benefits such as matchmaking and warding off evil. The light pouring out from the forest will refresh your mind and body. When you visit, we recommend taking a tour of the power spots as well.

Tsukuba Shrine not only provides information about the International Science and Technology Exposition (Expo), but is also known for enshrining the male and female deities and having blessings for matchmaking, marital harmony, and fertility. The shrine's grounds have a rich natural atmosphere and are full of attractions such as the 800-year-old "Osugi" tree and the power spot known as "Asahi Inari Shrine," also called the "Success Inari Shrine." Why not refresh your mind and body in this special place when you visit?
