Owase-jinja Shrine
Owase-jinja Shrine is located five minutes by car from the Owase-Kita Interchange on the Kisei Highway. Susa-no-o-no-Mikoto is its enshrined deity, and it is the only shrine in Owase that has such a long history. According to tradition, it was founded in the Taiho period (701-703), and it is said that many warriors came to pray for victory during the Warring States period. Every year, a festival called Yaya Matsuri, a festival principally for young men, is held on Old New Year, February 1 to 5, and it is considered one of Japan's many strange festivals. Two large camphor trees that stand within the precincts are considered husband and wife trees, and are said to be more than a thousand years old. They have been designated prefectural natural monuments.

- 電話対応が悪すぎる 不快
- 体験云々ではなく、ここの女性従業員の電話対応があまりにもひどい。受けていてすごく面倒くさそうに対応され、気分が著しく悪くなった。この神社に行く気が失せた。

- 夫婦大楠
- 馬鹿でかい天然記念物の夫婦大楠が真っ先に目に飛び込んできます。尾鷲神社も立派ですが、隣合わせにある金剛寺の山門が気になります。

- 神社内の大楠触ってパワーアップ
- 尾鷲駅から港町の狭い路地を抜けると、大きなしっかりとした神社があります。街の中にある割に静かで異空間。手をあわせてコロナ悪病退散願います。不思議と気になる大楠のコブ。思わず触って、良縁子宝安産祈願しちゃいました。
