Nangū Taisha, Shinto shrine in Tarui, Japan
Nangū Taisha stands at the base of Mount Nangu, featuring 18 distinct Edo-period structures within its expansive grounds designated as Important Cultural Properties.
Following complete destruction during the 1600 Battle of Sekigahara, the shrine underwent reconstruction in 1642 under Shogun Tokugawa Iemitsu's directive.
The shrine honors Kanayama-hiko, the deity of mining and metal industries, maintaining strong connections with regional swordsmiths through annual ceremonies.
Located one kilometer southwest of Tarui Station on the JR Tokai Tōkaidō Main Line, the shrine complex includes parking facilities for vehicles and hiking trail access.
The shrine buildings follow a 51-year reconstruction cycle, preserving ancient architectural techniques through regular renewal of sacred structures.
