ALT It illuminates the unknown paths that lead you to the holy places and shining you between the Kumano Kodo and Spain. It is the original Izumo shrine, which has existed in Kyoto Prefecture since the Heian period, before the Izumo Taisha shrine in Shimane Prefecture came into being. Although the name has changed over the ages and the energies of the people involved have also changed, we have formed a good relationship with the UK and the EEA in the area of economics, learning from each other and supporting the beautiful nurturing of tree life, animal and bird life and the purification of environmental energies. With the permission of the priest of Tamaki Shrine for photographs, we offer our services as a charitable and co-operative educational resource.
