- quote
Behind Dogo Onsen, you’ll find a large torii gate with a road leading steeply up a hill. At the top of the road is an even steeper flight of rough stone steps, topped by a towering vermillion red structure. This is the gateway of Isaniwa Shrine, which sits above Dogo offering a fine view over Matsuyama.

... Isaniwa Shrine is devoted to the god Hachiman, patron of warriors, and decorating the shrine here and there are a number of paintings of warriors and warfare, dating from various periods. One panel from the Meiji period shows a number of steel battleships and little stick men with rifles engaged at the siege of Port Arthur.

The shrine is said to have been founded on the site where Emperor Chuai and Empress Jingu bathed at Dogo Onsen. Modeled on Iwashimizu Hachimangu in Kyoto Prefecture, the current buildings were constructed in the Hachiman-zukuri style in 1667. The shrine is visually stunning with its red paint, gold leaf, its roofs of cypress bark and tile, and its semi-tropical greenery.

In the fourteenth century the Kōno clan moved the shrine to its present location and it was rebuilt by the Matsudaira clan in the seventeenth century.
Isaniwa Jinja was restored in 1970.
