 Shinto Shrines
Shinto shrines are places of worship and the dwellings of the kami, the Shinto "gods".
Sengen Shrines are dedicated to Princess Konohanasakuya, the Shinto deity of Mount Fuji.
They include many of Shinto's most important shrines such as the Ise Shrines, Izumo Shrine and Atsuta Shrine, and a number of shrines newly built during the Meiji Period, such as Tokyo's Meiji Shrine and Kyoto's Heian Shrine.
