Izumo Grand Shrine

Japan’s No. 1 God of Marriage

Izumo Grand Shrine in Kameoka City is known as a shrine of matchmaking. The deity, Okuninushi no Mikoto, is believed to be the god of marriage, and prayers have long been offered for marital bliss, domestic safety, and the fulfillment of good marriages.
In particular, the mountain on which the shrine stands itself has a history of more than 10,000 years of faith as a sacred body, and nature itself, including mountains, rivers, rocks, and water, is valued as a blessing from the gods. In addition, the shrine is surrounded by beautiful nature, creating a quiet and sacred atmosphere. These characteristics of the shrine and its beautiful environment have made it a favorite place for many people to pray for marriage and family happiness, giving peace of mind and hope to visitors.
The Izumo Grand Shrine continues to carefully preserve the venerable tradition of matchmaking with its long-standing traditions and beliefs.
