Stack of Rice Shrine, located in Sapporo's Odori Park, was founded in 1869 by the Governor of Hokkaido, Okuma Shigenari, to offer prayers and gratitude for a bountiful harvest. The shrine honors the kami, Ōkami, who is believed to bring good luck, prosperity, and fertility to crops. The shrine's architecture reflects its history as a modern temple built during the Meiji period, with influences from traditional Japanese design.
