    A lonely unmanned shrine

    Original Text

    When I stayed at a nearby inn, I got off at a bus stop called Miso Tenjin, so I visited if there was such a shrine. It seems that it is officially called Honmura Shrine, but it is said that it is the only shrine in Japan dedicated to a god who is said to be beneficial to miso, and it was erected about 1300 years ago. However, the shrine itself was quite small, and it seemed that the damage was progressing 々. There is no Miyaji, so it feels like a lonely shrine, and it's not a place as a tourist destination.

    it's a small shrine, but it's rare.

    Although it is a small shrine, it is a shrine where miso gods are enshrined, which is rare in Japan. It's a small shrine that has a miso festival once a year, but it has a strong impact.

    Japan's only shrine enshrining miso

    Original Text

    Every year on October 25th, the miso union distributes miso praying for health, so you can line up early in the morning. The shrine, which has been a shrine that honors miso, which is indispensable for Japanese food, is also the god of learning to worship Sugawara no Michizane.

    It is also a bus stop from the airport. It faces the road and is easy to understand, but it is not a big shrine. It is the only god of miso in Japan, so if you have time, you can go there.

    A small "God of miso"

    Original Text

    A shrine along the train street where the Kumamoto tram runs. It's small and I'm sure you'll overlook it if you don't know anything. The only "Miso no Kami" is enshrined here in Japan, and I think it is rare.
