Tsukubasan Shrine, Shinto shrine on Mount Tsukuba, Japan
The shrine buildings extend across both peaks of Mount Tsukuba, with the worship hall positioned near the cable car station at 877 meters elevation.
The shrine complex houses over 100 subordinate shrines and maintains structures from 1633, including the Zuijinmon Gate and traditional Haiden worship hall.
The shrine celebrates two major festivals called Ozagawari on April 1 and November 1, featuring processions carrying child deities up and down the mountain.
Visitors can reach the shrine using the Mount Tsukuba Cable Car, which operates regular services between the base station and the mountain summit.
The shrine enshrines the creation deities Izanagi and Izanami on separate peaks, representing the male and female aspects of Japanese mythology.
