South Area 6

The area name, Toheida, first appeared in Tenbun Nikki, or diary of Shonyo, the 10th chief priest of Shinshu Sect Honganji Temple. The diary explains that Jonen Toheida, an influential leader during the Ikko Ikki (uprising of Ikko Sect followers), lived in this area.
Toheida was protected by Nakaoku Hachiman Shrine. It was once called simply Hachiman Shrine, but was renamed Nakaoku Hachiman Shrine in 1879.
