Ushijima Shrine
This is the head shrine of the Honjo neighborhood, founded circa 860 AD by the great Buddhist leader Jikaku. Legend has it that in 1251 the shrine was visited by a bull demon which dropped a knot of hair as it ran around the shrine, and the knot was enshrined as a sacred treasure. The legend is commemorated in the statues of cattle deity that flank the main shrine building.
