　　Tanunaiyama Shrine, a prefectural cultural property.
　　Tanunaiyama Shrine was founded more than 1,300 years ago. It is said to have enshrined the god Taguchi-Hikokami, who pioneered the land. On the grounds of the shrine, there is a huge rock of Arahavaki, a mysterious deity who is never mentioned in the Kojiki (Records of Ancient Matters) or Japanese scribes. Most of the shrines that once enshrined this god have changed their deities. Some say that he is the god of the barbarians, the god of Monobe, the god of iron making, and the god of Sai, but the truth is not known. However, it is said that wherever the Arahavaki god is enshrined, there is always a shrine. It is said that the shrine was founded to enshrine this Tannaisan shrine. It was founded during the Jowa period (834-847, Heian period) by Nichihiro, a disciple of Kobo Daishi, who enshrined Fudo Myoo. At the time, it was called "Daishyoji Fudo-Tanai Daigongen". In the Edo period, it prospered as a place of prayer for the lord of the Nambu domain.

　　The Yananoe Project for the Gathering of Old Houses
　　In 2018, the project began renovating a 100-year-old old house and its annexes with the keyword "a relaxing place for adults to gather". Efforts were made to improve the main house (a partially two-story, seven-bedroom wooden house) and clean and furnish the storehouse (a two-story building) to create a space that can be used for events and meetings, as well as barbecues and pizza-making experiences.
　　　The owner is a certified outdoor instructor and is also a coffee barista. When the timing is right, the owner will be happy to make you a cup of his special coffee.

　　While welcoming urban children as part of our green tourism program, we realized the importance of communicating the life and landscape of a rural village. We felt the joy of sharing the time we spent together and wanted to make it a base for communicating the charm of the countryside, which led us to start Nodomitoku-san.
