It is located on Mount Koganeyama, an isolated island in the Pacific Ocean opposite the southeastern tip of the Oshika Peninsula [fr; en; ja] in Ishinomaki City, Miyagi Prefecture. Its former status was that of a prefectural shrine, but after the war it became a special listed shrine under the Association of Shinto Shrines .
It is located facing west on the middle of the western slope of Mt. Kinka, but since the entire island of Mt. Kinka is considered a sacred area, the shrine and Mt. Kinka (island) are sometimes used almost synonymously, and it is also commonly known as Koganeyama Shrine or Koganeyama Koganeyama Shrine . The temple is bustling with worshippers and tourists praying for worldly benefits such as prosperity in business and better luck, but before modern times it was a Shingon sect [en; ja] temple called Koganeyama Daikin-ji, which had no women allowed [en; ja] and dedicated to Benzaiten (Benten). It is counted as one of the " Five Benten Shrines " in Japan along with Itsukushima Shrine in Hiroshima Prefecture [2], and is counted as one of the " Three Holy Sites of Tōhoku, " alongside the Three Mountains of Dewa (Dewa Sanzan) in Yamagata Prefecture and Osorezan [en; User:Immanuelle/draft; ja] in Aomori Prefecture .
