十二社

Niigata

The Twelve Shrines of Nikko, a UNESCO World Heritage site, encompasses Shugendo and Buddhist influences with the main shrine in Niigata named '十二社' (Jūnissa). This enshrined kami is not as prominent as others found at the main complex. Located within an area known for rice cultivation and spiritual practices dating back to ancient times, Jūnissa has a connection to regional mountain spirits believed to be associated with rice and agriculture.
