Rinsenji
Buddhist temple
👍 It is a temple associated with Uesugi Kenshin. There is an entrance fee, but there is a portrait of Kenshin Uesugi in the Treasure Hall, which everyone often sees. Also, there was a grave. What about when you go to Kasugayama?

Former Imai Dyeing Shop
Heritage museum
👍👍 I visited the tenement house because it was said that I could tour it for free. It was apparently inhabited until about 20 years ago, but the city has now purchased it and preserved it as a cultural property. The part that used to be a dirt floor is now a workshop, and events are also held here. The...

👍 In 1614, Tadateru Matsudaira was commissioned to the world as the residence of Tadateru Matsudaira in Motoshiro-cho, Joetsu City, Niigata Prefecture! This castle 🏯 is a contoured flat castle, but for some reason the castle tower was not built ⁉️ After that, Mitsunaga Matsudaira has repaired it! Th...

👍👍 土器を見に行ったつもりが謙信公と春日山城展がやっておりラッキーでした。どうやらバスで春日山城周りを案内してもらえるツアーもやっているようです。私は時間が無かったので参加できませんでしたが。入館料は無料で施設の方も対応が良かったです。土器などの展示もありました。火焔土器は十日市や長岡のものと少しデザイ...

Jokoji
Buddhist temple
👍 Located in Joetsutakada. Takada Station has an exit only on the east side and Teramachi on the west side, so you have to walk a little to the south and cross the railroad crossing. A temple that was founded by Shinran Jonin who was exiled. The main hall is an important cultural property of the coun...

Kokubunji
Buddhist temple
😐 Since we visited by car, this temple, Fuchu Hachimangu Shrine, Hongwanji Kokufu Betsuin Temple, and Ita Shrine are almost in close proximity. As such, most of the undetermined Kokufu would have existed within this region. Although it costs money, if it is impossible to have staff stationed at the t...

謙信公出陣 御前清水
Historical landmark
🫤 It is on the way to go to Kasugayama Castle Ruins from the main road. When I parked in a nearby parking lot and headed to the castle ruins, my grandfather was drawing water in a plastic bottle. I thought it would be fine to go home, and when I returned after attacking Kasugayama Castle for about 2...

👍👍 I had been told that my grandfather had learned skiing from Mr. Lerch, but when I visited here for the first time, I was able to confirm that my grandfather's name was really recorded. The staff at the memorial hall were also very kind to check out the materials. Thanks ❣️
