Samukawa Shrine also participates as an archer of Ichomon.

About 5,000 hydrangeas have been planted in the rice paddy area, making it famous as the "Hydrangea Village." Against the backdrop of lush green rice fields, the colors of the hydrangea flowers stand out, with the best viewing time from early to mid-June. Recommended spots include the Instagram-worthy "Hydrangea Pond" and the original hydrangea "Kaisei Blue." Additionally, various events are held at the nearby "Ashigari Sato Setoya" (a traditional house from about 300 years ago).
