The Mystical Kanta Shrine

Presence of Gods Beyond Time and Space

The Kanta Shrine stands in the town of Niseko. As you walk along the long approach, you will find a sacred space. The lush greenery in the precincts tells the passage of time, and the flickering flames of the bonfire beckon you into the world of mystery.

Fusion of Japanese and Western Traditions

The Kanta Shrine is guarded by a young priest who used to be a backpacker and a former hostel owner. While cherishing Japanese traditions, it also plays a role as a gateway to the world. New initiatives are practiced, such as putting safety prayers stickers on skis and snowboards.

Things to Keep in Mind When Visiting

When visiting the Kanta Shrine, be sure to confirm the location in advance. Be aware that the written seal may not have a date. You can enjoy a luxurious time comforting your soul and being filled with a sacred atmosphere while walking along the long approach.
