    袋が選べるお守りや、かわいいおみくじがあり、子供も楽しめる神社。金華山の麓、長良川のほとりという絶好のロケーション。境内は緑が多く気持ちのいい空間です。周辺には岐阜城や子供が遊べる公園もあり、合わせて楽しめるのも魅力。

    神様でなく英霊をお祀りしている。 全体的に新しく、長い歴史からくる荘厳さといったものが感じられない。結婚式のための神社みたい。

    結構神社を回ったりしてますが、巫女さんの舞や婚礼、初宮参りの着物姿の人を見たのは初めてです。 3月下旬に早くも桜が咲いていました。

    The dignified atmosphere is as expected. There is a sacred camphor tree at the entrance.

    37,800 spirits of spirits from the Gifu, Chuno, and Tono regions were enshrined here. There was a cherry tree called Ukai-zakura, and it was said that it would be in full bloom during the cherry blossom season. I wish I could come again during the cherry blossom season. In the precincts, there is the Kappa Daimyojin Shrine.

    The silence is comfortable. At the foot of Mt. Kinka (Mt. Inaba), on the banks of the Nagara River The sound of gravel makes you feel purified. It also sounds like the sound of a requiem. Although it is a shrine of a new era, it is `` Gokoku Shrine as expected! 'It feels like ◍The guardian dog in the main hall is slim and muscular, and he looks like he's puffing out his chest. ◍The guardian dog of the Chinreisha shrine behind the Peace Monument has eyes popping out! ◍The left and right sides of the divine horse's faces look different to me. ◍Oyasu Island (Oyashima) It is said to be the symbol of Japan's birth and creation. ◍From the torii gate in the direction of Ushitora from the main shrine, you can see the cormorant fishing boats and the row of cherry blossom trees along the bank, which is adjacent to the Nagara River. There is also a statue of Meiji Emperor nearby. ◍Soul Ceremony Hall - When I looked back at the photos afterwards, for an amateur like me, it didn't have that sacred feeling at all, so I highly recommend you to visit! ◍Cormorant fishing cherry blossoms🌸The early blooming is said to be a good indicator of the fortunes of sweetfish in cormorant fishing. .*・*. *.*. *・. * Can you customize the color, shape, and combination of divine objects for your amulet? I'm glad I was able to do it. It seems that there are several types of goshuincho.

    1145. 2021.09.19 It is enshrined at the foot of Mt. Kinka. Is it because Gifu Castle and Gifu Park are close? I don't see that much with other Gokoku-san. There are also couples and people with children. Gokoku Shrine is unusually crowded It's a heartwarming feeling. There is a pond in the grounds where carp and small fish swim. Rice was ripening in the small rice field. The way the roof of the shrine building curves is very nice. The tip of the guardian dog's horn was broken. Goshuin is available in addition to Gokoku Shrine. With Ashiki Nemiya-san, a subsidiary shrine within the precincts. You can also get one at Kappa Daimyojin. 1940 (Showa 15) By Ordinance of the Ministry of Home Affairs Excluding Seino 1 city 3 districts and Hida 3 districts from the Meiji Restoration To enshrine the spirits of war dead from Gifu Prefecture It was founded as Gifu Gokoku Shrine, At the same time, it was designated as a Gokoku Shrine designated by the Minister of Home Affairs. After the war, cooperation with military facilities from GHQ In order to avoid criticism, it was renamed Mino Goryo Shrine. After the restoration of sovereignty, the name was restored to its original name. It enshrines 3,698 heroic spirits in Gifu Prefecture.

    岐阜の英霊を祀っている神社で近くには明治天皇の銅像などもあります。 とても手入れが行き届いており、いつも沢山の人で賑わっております。 御朱印も沢山ありました。 結婚式なども行われており、機会があれば見ることが出来ます。

    The air was so fresh in this place. I also split the insulation plates. I feel like it's gotten a little better. Maybe they're a good match. I also received a kappa stamp. I would like to find time to go again.
