 The "ginkgo biloba" or ginkgo tree stands on a hill of the left bank of the Otonashi river, just beside the shrine precincts, at the right side of the sandō.It has a height of 24.2 m and a trunk circumference of 5.2 m. It is suspected to have been planted during the construction of the shrine, which would make it more than 600 years old.Unlike most of the Oji shrine, the ginkgo tree survived the bombing of Tokyo during World War II, although the top part of the trunk was damaged.
