Kobe, Japan
Ikuta Shrine
Ikuta Shrine is a Shinto shrine in the Chūō Ward of Kobe, Japan, and is possibly among the oldest shrines in the country. It was founded by Empress Jingu when she returned from the Three Kan campaign. She was nearly shipwrecked but managed to survive thanks to praying to Watatsumi, and she made the shrine to honor him.
