Munakata Hachiman

Munakata Hachiman is part of the Munakata Shrine complex, dedicated to Hachiman, but it also embodies the deeper connection to sea-route protection through the veneration of the three Munakata Hime. It emphasizes the interrelationship between Shinto and the maritime traditions of Japan.
