Access
From major cities
- From Tokyo
- Train: the shrine's own access note tells visitors to take bus routes 75 and 76 from platform 10 of the JR Hamamatsu Station bus terminal and get off at the JA Nagami branch, a short walk from the shrine; by car it is about 5 to 10 minutes from the Tomei Expressway Hamamatsu IC. The Tokaido Shinkansen does not serve Hamamatsu, so a Shinkansen visitor changes at Toyohashi or Iwata and takes the Tokaido Line. The sources checked give the local access but no Tokyo-specific itinerary
