  • 5/5 Yokohama my soul t. 2 years ago on Google
    宗猷寺の奥に木工に長けた「木地師」という人たちの墓石があり、誰も訪ねることなくひっそりと佇んでいます。大和朝廷が制定されるよりもはるか昔から、この地には木工に長けた人たちが住んでいたとの記述を読みました。ここにある墓石はその末裔なのでしょうね。高山市の資料にも書かれていましたが小椋姓の名をよく見るので、高山にルーツがある小椋姓の方は、ここを尋ねるとまた違った高山の一面が見えるかもしれません。 幕末三舟の一人である山岡鉄舟の両親のお墓も宗猷寺にあります。父は高山郡代として赴任し、鉄舟も幼少期を高山で過ごしたという縁からだそうです。墓石の文字は鉄舟が書いたとな。

    城山公園からほど近く、一緒に拝観されるとよいと思います。 桜が満開の日でしたが、ほとんど人がおらずのんびり拝観できます。 参道の桜が見事でした。 人混みに疲れたなと思ったらいかがでしょうか? 近くに小さなカフェや蕎麦屋さんもありますよ!

    Those looking for a nice and quiet place to escape the tourist bustle of downtown Takayama should visit the Higashiyama Teramachi (the temple district of Takayama). Here you will find the Soyu-ji, one of the nicer temples and a place that exudes serenity. The best and easiest way to visit the temple district (and Shiroyama Park) is the Higashiyama Walking Course, a 3.5-kilometer walk that takes you past the thirteen temples and five shrines of the Higashiyama Teramachi.

    During the day it's busy, with the market stalls open. At night its quiet but the temple lights makes it look spectacular. Best to see it at both times of day.
