Tsubaki Okami Yashiro is the head shrine of the roughly two thousand shrines across Japan dedicated to Sarutahiko-no-Okami, the deity who guided the heavenly grandson down to earth and is therefore the god of showing the way — invoked for new ventures, changes of direction and, in modern practice, for business.

It sits at the foot of the Suzuka range on a wooded site with a long approach, and it claims a history of about two thousand years. Beside it stands Tsubakikishi Shrine to Ame-no-Uzume, Sarutahiko's consort and the deity of the performing arts, which draws people from theatre, music and dance. It is free, opens at five in the morning, and has parking for around five hundred cars, which tells you how many people come.

インサイダーガイド

**It is the head shrine for Sarutahiko.** About two thousand shrines nationwide, and this is the source. That is why people come from across the country for new ventures. **Visit Tsubakikishi too.** The subordinate shrine to Ame-no-Uzume, deity of the performing arts, draws people from theatre and music and is in the same precinct. **Five in the morning.** Opens at dawn all year. The approach through the woods before the car park fills is the best of it. **Five hundred parking spaces.** For a shrine at the foot of a mountain. New Year and the first days of a month are genuinely busy. **Two minutes from the Shin-Meishin.** Which makes it one of the easiest major shrines in Japan to reach by car from either Nagoya or Osaka.
