Todoroki Shrine is located in Kaiyo, Tokushima Prefecture, and is best accessed by taking the JR Mugi Line to Awa-Kainan Station, then a 10-minute walk from the Todoroki Jinja-mae town bus stop. This small shrine is a key starting point for visitors heading to the nearby Todoroki Falls. The shrine's autumn festival features a traditional waterfall purification ritual, where a portable shrine is carried into the basin of the falls, adding to the falls' majestic atmosphere. It's recommended to visit the shrine before heading to the falls to appreciate the spiritual significance of the area.
