Completed in December 1920 and possibly reconstructed in 1932, this former Shinto shrine was associated with the nearby Shalu Sugar Factory. It was dismantled sometime in the post-war period. What may be the fire-box (火袋) of one of its stone lanterns has reportedly been spotted at nearby Shalu Yuhuang Temple, though the identification remains unconfirmed.
