    I walk quite a bit from Shimamoto station.

    Access is not good. It's quite on a hill, so you can overlook Shimamoto Town. The scenery of the Kizu River, Uji River, and Katsura River joining the Yodo River is also a masterpiece. It is a shrine that stands quietly surrounded by greenery.

    It walks quite a bit, but it has a history and the scenery is good.

    From Shimamoto Station, I walk a lot toward the housing complex beyond the government office, but it has a long history and the scenery is good. The Katsura River, the Kizu River, and the Uji River become one, and you can see the scenery of the Yodo River beautifully. It was said that the building of the main shrine is also designated as an official cultural property. You can climb by car.

    You can see Shimamoto Town.

    For older people, if you climb a small 々 tight staircase (also with a slope in parallel), a small precinct will appear. Looking down on the right, you can overlook Shimamoto Town sandwiched between the mountains, and in the back you can see the point where the Kizu River, Uji River, and Katsura River merge with the Yodo River. Dontoyaki is held on New Year's Day.

    It was a shrine that boasts great luck for its popularity.

    This is a shrine nicknamed and commonly known as Tenno as Ujigami of Hirose, Todaiji, Sakurai, and Kaminai in Shimamoto Town. The deity is Susanoo-no-Mikoto, a venerable and prestigious shrine that is said to have been built by Gyoki as 22 1 more than 1300 years ago. This is also a victim who was baptized by the Shinto-Buddhist separation Ordinance by naive thinking rulers called the Meiji government. At that time, it was renamed Wakayama Shrine. The forest surrounding this shrine is also selected as "100 Best Osaka Midori" ...

    A shrine familiar to the townspeople

    Original Text

    Wakayama Shrine was built in ancient times and has been popular as a local shrine since then. On the night of New Year's Eve at the end of the year and New Year's Eve, it is crowded with cherry blossom viewing visitors during the cherry blossom season, and it shows a face like spring, summer, autumn and winter 々. If you are using public transportation, you will be on foot after getting off at Wakayamadai Center by Hankyu Bus. You can see the Mikawa confluence and it is in a place where you can overlook the city. We recommend the cherry blossoms, autumn leaves, and fresh green seasons.
