It is an extremely popular area, so we recommend you come early in the morning if you would like to feel the divine atmosphere. There is also a shrine at the summit of Mt. Yahiko which is also worth a visit. You can get to the summit via the Yahikoyama Ropeway. There is a free shuttle bus from the shrine to Yahiko Station.

Yahiko shrine 🙏
Yahiko-jinja is the main shrine of former Echigo province and has been ruling over Niigata’s northern territory for more than 2,400 years. Nestled in a dense forest of century-old cedar trees, the Shinto site is imbued with a strong spirituality, enhanced by the view of Mount Yahiko overlooking the Sea of Japan in the background. The area’s inhabitants visit the shrine all year round. It is dedicated to kami Amenokaguyama no Mikoto (or Amanokagoyama no Mikoto), the great grandson of the sun goddess Amaterasu, who among other things, grants good fortune, prosperity in business and success in love when prayed. According to a local legend, Amenokaguyama is said to have encouraged the birth of Echigo province and taught its people how to improve their livelihood with fishing and agriculture.

Stunning Yahiko ottori 🤩
Yahiko-ottori and shrine is the main shrine of former Echigo province and has been ruling over Niigata’s northern territory for more than 2,400 years. Nestled in a dense forest of century-old cedar trees, the Shinto site is imbued with a strong spirituality, enhanced by the view of Mount Yahiko overlooking the Sea of Japan in the background. The importance of the place is noticeable as soon as the neighboring downtown, from which stems an avenue marked by an immense and flamboyant Otorii (the third largest torii of japan), built in 1982 for the opening of the Joetsu Shinkansen line. Walking toward Yahiko-jinja, a succession of several torii gates stand to indicate the sacred and majestic character of the place into which one is walking. ##localguides
