Goshuin number 21 is from 新田神社 (Nitta Shrine), a beautiful shrine located behind the Kanayama Castle Ruins. If you walk through the ruins, the path naturally continues past them and up to the shrine; it’s super easy to find!

For whatever reason, the shop area was closed, and I thought I wasn’t going to be able to get a stamp. Before I left, I made sure to make an offering at the alter… and on a small table in front of the offering box was a small plastic container with stamps that had been written out on paper and left there for people to pay and take! Woot woot! Super lucky!
