Top 10 Sacred & Religious Sites in Atami, Chubu
A coastal resort complete with hot springs, Atami has been a favorite vacation spot for Tokyoites dating back to Tokugawa Ieyasu. Though the city's main draws are its beach boardwalk and spas, visitors can take in some history staying in early 20th-century private villas converted to inns and catching the afternoon Geisha dance performance at Geigi Kenban.

【 来宮神社（Kinomiya jinja ）】 This shrine is well know as the strongest spiritual energy place in around Tokyo, and it’s located in close to Atami Onsen. We can get there from Atami station or Kinomiya station on foot. ( I would like to recommend that you should go there from Atami station, because on the way you are abele to see very interesting and traditional Onsen townscape.) In particular, the sacred tree which is already more than 2,000 years old is very famous and popular among Japanese and international tourists too. It’s said as follows, 1- If we go around this sacred tree, our lifespan will be extended by one year. 2- If we make a wish and make a lap around this sacred tree, the wish will come true. Therefore there are usually many elderly people ( who seem to hope the life span will be extended ) and many young people ( who seem to hope the wish will come true) here in Kinomiya shrine. If you had big dream, it might be better for you to visit here.
