Currently, prayers are offered at the Main Shrine, a national treasure, but the Main Shrine is actually a special area used for public ceremonies such as the Kamo Festival, and is a national treasure that should be carefully maintained as a sacred space for solemn rituals.

In recent years, the main shrine has been significantly damaged by the large number of worshippers coming and going, and it has been determined that if things continue as they are, it will be difficult to maintain and manage the national treasure that should be preserved for future generations.
It was decided to rebuild the building.
