Ninigi Shrine is the guardian deity of Miyamaebo, and Ninigi no Mikoto is the deity worshipped here. The wooden two-tiered pagoda was built in the late Edo period and is a two-tiered tower measuring three bays. It belonged to Kutsuki Jinguji Temple as the pagoda of Kutsuki Jinguji Temple, but is also thought to be the tower of the inner sanctuary of Ninigi Shrine. The tower has a solid and stable feel, and inside it are enshrined wooden statues of Shaka Nyorai and 23 statues of Yakushi Nyorai, which have attracted worshippers since ancient times. The statues are from the early Kamakura period and retain the style of the Heian period. The annual festival held on May 5th is famous for the mikoshi togyo (portable shrine procession).
