Wakamiya Hachiman Shrine

Wakamiya Hachimangu Shrine is known as a shrine for praying for beauty, and is also called a pottery shrine because it enshrines the god of pottery ancestors [Wakamiya Hachimangu Shrine]. The Wakamiya Hachimangu Grand Festival is held every year from August 7 to 10, when the shrine grounds are decorated with ceramic dolls and a rare portable shrine decorated with ceramics is displayed. On the same day, a pottery festival is held around Gojozaka, the birthplace of Kiyomizu-yaki, where Kiyomizu-yaki and other ceramics from various production areas are displayed, attracting many people.
