*''Japanese'': 和布刈神社 ''(Mekari jinja)''

Mekari Shrine is a [[Shinto shrine]] in [[Moji]] ([[Kitakyushu City]]), situated at the northernmost point in [[Kyushu]], overlooking the [[Straits of Shimonoseki]].

In December 2019, the shrine completed construction on a new ''juyojo'' building for distributing ''[[omamori]]'' charms, ''[[goshuin]]'', and other items. Replacing a traditional wooden building where visitors would receive items from a window, the new structure features an indoor space with contemporary minimalist aesthetics. It was designed by Butsugan Tadahiro of the design group ABOUT, with consulting with the 300-year-old incense and crafts company [[Nakagawa Masashichi Shoten]] (est. [[1716]]).
