Ozaki Shrine, Shinto shrine in Marunouchi district, Kanazawa, Japan.
Located north of Kanazawa Castle Park, Ozaki Shrine features traditional red vermilion gates, a central hall, and Japanese gardens with a pond and bridge.
In 1643, Maeda Mitsutaka, the fourth lord of Kaga Domain, constructed this shrine within Kanazawa Castle to honor his great-grandfather Tokugawa Ieyasu.
The shrine functions as a Tōshō-gū, a category of Shinto sanctuaries specifically dedicated to Tokugawa Ieyasu, the founder of the Tokugawa shogunate.
Open daily from 6:00 AM to 8:00 PM, this free-admission shrine provides four parking spaces and maintains informative signs in English about ritual procedures.
The main building holds the designation of Important Cultural Property of Japan, preserving architectural elements from the early Edo period.
