Kuki Shrine
On the approach to the Kuki Shrine, known as the “Air Shrine,” there are monuments representing the five elements that make up the universe: wood, fire, earth, metal, and water.
After reaching a small hill surrounded by beech forest, you will find a 5m square stainless steel mirror panel in the forest.
The atmosphere is expressed by capturing the surroundings.
The large mirror welcomes you and draws you into a sacred space, reflecting the fresh greenery of the surrounding area in spring and the autumn leaves in autumn.
The main hall, located underground, is three meters deep and is an underground space surrounded by a torii gate made of four pillars representing the four seasons.
Inside the main hall, clean air is enshrined in 12 terracotta jars, each representing a year.
