    It was built in 709, and is also called Kuwayama Daimyojin or Yata Shrine. Once upon a time, the whole area was a muddy leke, and the god of the festival, Ookuninushinokami cut open the Uketa Gorge with a hoe, poured water, and harvested it to the people as a cultivated rice field. It is said that it originated from the fact that the residents who were grateful for this worshiped as Kuwayama Daimyojin. It is also a famous place for autumn leaves, so it soothes the heart of visitors.
