It is said that you will leave Kannonji Temple and go on the narrow road on the right and enter the alley on the left immediately. Or, when you leave Kannonji Temple and turn right at the intersection with a signal, there is a display board ahead, and turn right and you will see it in front of the left.

Sano City is known as the town of Tenmei casting. Kanayama Shrine was gathering the faith of such casters. Nowadays, only half of the buildings used in the meeting hall remain, but if you look closely, there were wonderful sculptures. It seems to be very grand during the festival.
