Shiogama-jinja Shrine
This shrine is near the Tori-no-umi Parking Area. Its primary deities are Shiotsuchiojinokami, Takemikazuchi-no-mikoto, and Futsunushi-no-mikoto. In 1615 the wandering samurai Ito Saburozaemon first taught salt making in the Sendai area and was appointed the guardian of the tradition. In that role, it's said he started the spread of Shiogama-jinja Shrine in the region. It's located in an idyllic rural environment and features a long walkway. In the wake of the 2011 Tohoku Earthquake and Tsunami, the pine trees surrounding the shrine perished, but have been replaced by tairyo-zakura cherry trees.
