Omiwa Shrine Haiden
Shinto shrine
👍👍 電車から見える大鳥居を一の鳥居と勘違いされるかたが多いようですが、こちらが本物(笑)です。
さすが歴史のある大神神社の一の鳥居。目の前に見えた時にざわざわっと空気が変わりました。
参拝される方は、三輪駅から少し遠回りですが、こちらの一の鳥居から回られることをお勧めします。
入った先にはふちもと橋があり、...

Oyamato Jinja
Shinto shrine
👍👍 Surprisingly unknown shrine related to the battleship Yamato⛩️
It has a solemn atmosphere and various attractions.
There is a short walk along the approach (the same length as the battleship Yamato), but there are no stairs, so even those with poor legs can reach the main shrine.

Shorinji Temple
Buddhist temple
👍 Even though it is a small temple, there are so many items for sale that you will be surprised. It seems that 100 million units of funds are required for renovation, and crowdfouting is also being done. The 2.8 km bus from Sakurai Station leaves once every few hours, and if you take the prefectural...

Tōmi Shrine
Shinto shrine
👍👍 I was able to pay a visit to a historical shrine that is not an example of "a shrine with a difficult name has a long history". The parking lot happened to be open for only one car in a place where it was easy to park, so I was able to call it. In the fine weather in the early afternoon, the wide p...

Sogasuwasogatsuhiko Shrine
Shinto shrine
👍 やはりGoogleMapで見つけた蘇我氏をお祀りするお宮さまです。最近、神社関連の本で読んだばかりですが、歴史は為政者の都合の良いように書き換えられてきたことも、成程と思います。曽我の地名からも解る通り、近在の方々に大切に守られてきたお宮さまにお詣りにでき、ありがっ様です。
