Beppyo shrine
A Beppyo Shrine, or Beppyō Jinja (別表神社), is a type of Shinto shrine that is considered to be remarkable in some way and thought to be more important than other shrines. This category of shrines was defined by the Association of Shinto Shrines,[1] and it is seen as the successor to the more detailed Modern system of ranked Shinto shrines.
The list is too big to show here, so it only shows a list of important shrines that are not Beppyo shrines. To see a list of Beppyo shrines, please refer to the list in the Modern system of ranked Shinto shrines, which includes all of these shrines plus the ones mentioned below.
Shrines that are not Beppyo Shrines
The shrines listed below are not Beppyo Shrines because they do not have a strong relationship with the Association of Shinto Shrines. Those whose "Year of termination of umbrella relationship" is 1946 have not been in a close relationship with the Association of Shinto Shrines since it was established in 1946.
