This shrine is considered to be Yugawara’s premier power spot. A 36 meter sacred camphor tree, estimated to be 850 years old, lives at this shrine. The tree’s root circumference is 15.6 meters. An inner section of the trunk has decayed and been reinforced with concrete.
Gosho Shrine is known for its statues of the Shichi-fukujin, or the seven dieties of good fortune. You can’t help but smile when you see them.
