Fukuda Shrine
Also known as Omiya-sama as a sign of affection and gratitude, the Omiya-odori Dance passed down in this shrine for centuries is designated as an Important Intangible Folk Cultural Property. The shrine has many other cultural properties, including the treasured three votive swords designated as Cultural Properties by Maniwa City, as well as statues of deities, ancient masks, and Komainu (guardian dogs). The large 650-year-old ginkgo trees in the precincts are a popular spot for autumnal leaves in November. A golden carpet decorates the grounds.
