Kumano Hongu Taisha

Kumano Hongu Taisha was founded during the reign of Emperor Sujin, Japan's 10th emperor, and enshrines Ketsumimiko-no-Okami as its principal deity. It was designated a UNESCO World Cultural Heritage Site in 2004. Since ancient times, the shrine has attracted worshippers from all levels of society, including aristocrats, samurai, and commoners. So many pilgrims traveled here from across Japan in long processions that the sight was likened to a line of ants and called the “Ant Pilgrimage to Kumano.”
