Oya Shrine Spring Shrine

The ancient shrine in Asama Onsen, the setting for the Torch Festival

Misa Shrine, long enshrined in the land of Asama Onsen, continues to watch over the lives of the local people. It enshrines the same three deities as Suwa Grand Shrine and forms a pair with the Aki-no-Miya Shrine beyond the mountains, making it a shrine of great historical significance. Though compact

, its grounds are filled with pure air, making it a fitting place to quietly pray for safe travels and the fulfillment of one's wishes.Each year in early October, the vigorous "Torch Festival" is held, enveloping the grounds in fervor. The contrast between its usual tranquil presence and the festival's lively atmosphere is one of the joys of visiting this place. Be sure to stop by while exploring the hot spring town.
