Shirahata Shrine, Shinto shrine in Fujisawa, Japan.

The Shirahata Shrine features traditional Japanese architecture with white torii gates and stone lanterns positioned along tree-lined pathways leading to the main hall.

The shrine's main building, completed in 1835 after seven years of construction, underwent substantial renovations in 1980 to maintain its structural integrity.

Visitors to the shrine honor Minamoto no Yoshitsune and other members of the Minamoto clan, reflecting the strong connection to samurai traditions.

Located four minutes from Fujisawa-Honmachi Station on the Odakyu Enoshima Line, the shrine provides clear directional signs and maintained paths for accessibility.

The shrine's modern torii gate, constructed in 1984 using fiberglass material, stands 8 meters high and represents the first earthquake-resistant gate in Japan.
