[Hakone] Kuzuryu Shrine: Relax in the cool sunlight on the shores of Lake Ashi

Kuzuryu Shrine is said to grant blessings such as matchmaking, financial luck, and business prosperity.
The torii gate facing Lake Ashi is mystical, and the tranquil atmosphere surrounded by the greenery of the lakeside naturally soothes the soul. 🌱

The "Tsukinamisai" (Monthly Festival) is held on the 13th of each month, and worshippers are also popular from sightseeing boats across the lake.
