Tosen Shrine
Tosen Shrine (湯泉神社), nestled in the heart of Arima Onsen on Mount Atago, holds deep spiritual significance as the guardian of the region's legendary hot springs. The shrine honors Onamuchi no Mikoto and Sukunahikona no Mikoto, revered deities known for their protective powers over both Arima and its healing waters. These gods are believed to bless visitors seeking health, happiness, and prosperity, making Tosen Shrine a cherished destination for spiritual solace.
Beyond its role as a protector of the hot springs, Tosen Shrine is also renowned for its connection to fertility. According to legend, those hoping to conceive can enhance their chances by bathing in Arima’s mineral-rich waters and praying at the shrine. Visitors often travel from afar to receive special amulets believed to promote pregnancy and ensure safe childbirth, solidifying the shrine’s reputation as a place of hope and blessings.
