Kashima

Kashima combines the ceremonial calm of its shrine grounds with a working coastal economy, reflecting its position on Ibaraki’s Pacific shore. Kashima Jingū, a major Shinto shrine, is dedicated to Takemikazuchi, a deity associated with martial tradition. To the east, the Kashima-nada forms the city’s Pacific seaboard, while Kashima Port serves an industrial area that continues across the boundary into neighbouring Kamisu. Football is another local marker: Kashima Antlers are based here and play at Kashima Soccer Stadium. Continue through nearby webcams to explore different parts of Kashima and Ibaraki Prefecture.
