Jiko-in
Buddhist temple
👍👍 Built in the Edo period, the entire precincts are like a tea ceremony. Located between Horyuji Temple and Yakushiji Temple as a tourist destination, it is an inconspicuous place, but the buildings and gardens are beautiful (according to the chief priest, it was made by the same person in the same a...

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.
If you drive from...

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。

Obitoke-dera
Buddhist temple
👍 Praying for safe childbirth on the Sunday before the dog.
The road width was very narrow to drive to the private parking lot nearby, and it was difficult to leave. I think you can park in front of the station and walk when it's not hot. It didn't seem that far.
It was a small temple, but there was...

Imanishi House
Historical landmark
👍👍 One of the reasons why the old townscape of Imai-cho has survived to future generations is that the Imanishi family played a central role in enforcing rules in the town to prevent large-scale fires and incidents. It is no exaggeration to say that it was possible to preserve it by serving as a direc...
