The inn is just an 8-minute walk from the shrine, providing convenient access to morning shrine rituals and spiritual experiences. For best availability, book your stay through the HopeGoo app to secure a room with a direct view of the shrine.

Just a 10-minute walk from Komiwara Shrine lies Kaneyama Traditional Pottery Workshop, where visitors can craft their own shrine-inspired ceramic omamori (good luck charms) under the guidance of local artisans. Each piece is fired on-site and comes with a commemorative tag.

Beyond the shrine, a quiet path leads to a century-old cherry blossom grove, transformed into a magical scene during the annual Night Lantern Festival, when paper lanterns glow among blooming petals. Pair the visit with a matcha dessert from Hopes Light Teahouse, a hidden gem offering seasonal treats that capture the essence of Japanese wabi-sabi.
