Full lacquer and rich colors adorn this group of gorgeous shrine buildings, 26 of which have been designated as national important cultural properties. Common people of the Edo period (1603 - 1868) worshipped this shrine by the name "Osengen-san". The traditional dance "Ama-no-Ni-no-Mai" (commonly known as Zujanko) is performed as part of "Chigo bugaku" (court dance with music, an important intangible folk cultural property) at the Hatsukae Festival held April 5th each year. Masks used in the dance appear by the name "Sengen-sama's Mask of Ama" in the comic novel Tokaidochu Hizakurige (Going Tokaido Shank'ｓ Mare).
