A shrine associated with Kyoka Izumi, perched at the top of Kuragarizaka (a dark slope).

The shrine is located in Owari-cho, a townscape of stately merchant houses, and has a long history as the birthplace of the market in Kanazawa. The stone stairway leading up the hill past the shrine grounds to Kazue-machi Chaya District is known as "Kuragarizaka"(a dark slope), and is a famous sightseeing spot.
