The main hall of this shrine didn't stand at the end of the stairway. The staircase still continued. After climbing more about 600 steps, I arrived at this hall called Izutama Jinja also known as Okusha.

This hall is the innermost building in this shrine. When I visited, there were few visitors because the long trek was necessary to go. The small hall was surrounded by the trees. Although it was a hard way to arrive, it was worth visiting.
