Takamu Shrine
The pure spring water that springs forth within the precincts of Takamu Shrine is known as "Koi no Mizu" or "Love Water." It's said that drinking this water can bring about romantic relationships or even longevity. The purity of this water is guaranteed.
This water maintains a consistent temperature throughout the year and is now one of the few remaining wells within the city. Takamu Shrine, the place of origin for the name "Furui no Sato" (Ancient Well Village), is an ancient shrine mentioned in the Engishiki (927 AD, mid-Heian period) and is classified as a Shikinaisha (Shinto shrine listed in historical records). The shrine enshrines the Deity of Bonds and Hachiman-sama.
