Utō Shrine

善知鳥神社

Utō Shrine stands at Yasugata 2-7-18, Aomori City, Aomori Prefecture (postal code 030-0803; telephone 017-722-4843) as a historic shrine linked to the city's founding story. Official pages state that grounds are open for worship around the clock, prayer reception runs from 9:00 to 16:00 year-round with no closed days, and the amulet office including goshuin stamps operates from 8:30 to 17:00 with a 500 yen first-fruit fee for stamps. It is about a 10-minute walk from JR Aomori Station via Shinmachi Street. Confirm busy-season handwritten-stamp limits and parking reservations before travel.
