About this place

Iseyama Kotai Jingu is a shrine in Miyazakicho, Nishi Ward, Yokohama, Kanagawa. Its deity is Amaterasu Sume Omikami, and its shrine crest is the cherry blossom. In Yokohama it is also simply called Kotai Jingu. Its former shrine rank was an extra special rank outside the Kanpei and Kokuhei shrines, later prefectural shrine. It is also the first shrine belonging to the Association of Shinto Shrines to be declared bankrupt. It was founded in 1870 (Meiji 3). Yokohama, once a poor village, became a treaty port and developed rapidly as a trading city.
