Kashimadai Shrine is a jinja (a Shinto shrine) in rural Miyagi, Japan, where kami (the gods and spirits of Shinto) have been worshipped for 1,200 years.

The shrine's story

In 1909, 14 shrines from six villages became one. In 1775, yamabushi (mountain ascetics) were its caretakers.

Kami are found in many things: there are shrines to the kami of electricity, and of hair.
