Isoyama Shrine is located in Kanuma City in Tochigi. It is a historical shrine built in 988 during Japan’s Heian Era (the 2nd year of the Eien Era). This shrine is well known for its Hydrangea Festival, which is held every year from mid-June to early July. Around 2,500 hydrangea flowers of 28 varieties are planted in the approach to the shrine and around the main shrine building in the shrine grounds. During the best time to see them, the green of the cedar trees and the colors of the hydrangea create a beautiful contrast. In addition, during the festival lanterns are lit from sunset to 8PM, letting you enjoy a truly magical atmosphere.
