Aomoriminatoshugoshin Suwa Shrine - Aomori

The shrine itself is compact. It is a shrine where dolphin visits are said to have happened when a dolphin had come to the front of the torii when the shrine was in Chushu. The dolphins in the waterhouse are cute. There was also a dolphin amulet. I got a red stamp.

It is a quiet place. There is a large tree. It is a calm place. The shade of a tree is cool wind of the big tree is also comfortable. Good thing ????

It is said that dolphins came to visit "Suwa Shinto shrine" quiet, and the air is fresh because I went to visit in the morning. I forgot to write it. The charge seems to be at home.

Suwa Shrine seems to have been in Tsutsugawa's Nakasu (before Aoyagi Bridge) during the period of Sasasei. Legend that dolphin came to worship at this time. Lots of dolphins in the precincts.

It is a rare shrine with a dolphin legend. Although the scale was small, the precincts were well cleaned and the shrine was well maintained. The shrine maiden kindly explained the dolphin legend.

20200322 Misawa was cloudy, but we went to the 3rd Aomori City Bullet Tour! I went to the "Suwa Shrine" because there was plenty of room around the shrines and temples where the photos were wiped out due to a malfunction of the mobile camera! From the right side of the torii, enter the precincts by car and park it. After passing through the torii, there is a cute dolphin waterhouse in front of the main shrine! At Suwa Shrine, there is a legend of the sea pig (dolphin) Suwa. In the Edo period, dolphins swarmed along the river Tsutsumi and visited Suwa Shrine! It is drawn in "Tsugaru Seiki Chosen" (written by Shiryu Kudo, 1786). It seems that the Suwa Shrine at this time was settled in Nakasu near the estuary, which is farther downstream than it is today. Regardless of whether or not you actually visited, it seems that there are many dolphins in Mutsu Bay today, which is surprisingly true! Aomori Port Guard God, Suwa Shrine: Sakaemachi, Aomori City Shrine gods: Takemigata God, Sarutahiko Okami, Gokoku no Horei Hirohiro Toshinaka (1004-1011) Sakon was appointed to Suwabayashi who was originally in Zougen-mura as a souvenir at the invitation of Asahi Fujiwara. In 1631, when Aomori opened the port, he was transferred to Nakasu Tsutsumigawa by Yashiro Moriyama, the magistrate of the port, who was appointed as the guardian deity of the opening of the port. It is said that the lord of the Araimori was respected by successive people, including the successive lords of Eiratsugaru, and was worshiped as the head of Aomori Gosha until the beginning of the Genroku period (1688-1704). On July 27, a mikoshi shrine was held in the city called "Okashi Matsuri." The company shrine was destroyed by the Great Fire of Aomori in March 1897 and moved to the present Sakaemachi. In 13th year of Taisho, the magnificent shrine made of zelkova was rebuilt, but the air raid on Aomori on July 28, 1945 destroyed the shrine and treasures. In 1948 after the war, the worship hall was rebuilt after receiving the payment of the Shōshodo (established in 1891 and built by Hiba) in Heipo Park. The main hall was built in 1972. In 1952, a new assembly hall was built. The annual festival, the evening lantern river lanterns, the Nebutagashi, and the iris festival are famous as citizens' annual events. As a god of water, it is worshiped as a guardian god of prosperity in agriculture, fishery, and as a guardian god of commercial prosperity and maritime safety. After visiting the shrine maiden, Ms. Miko asked, "A person who can write a red stamp is at lunch, so is it okay if I use a written stamp?" I received the stamp of red brush! It was a cozy shrine that was well maintained and cohesive!

There are also top dolphins, and it is recognized as a shrine that also protects Kawasaki Frontale. (At the first visit in January 2022) I highly recommend the Shichigosan pilgrimage. A conscientious tamagushi charge? Despite this, he performs the ritual very carefully and reads out the congratulatory words with a wonderful voice that makes him fall in love. (Comments in 2020) Evening palace is lively. (2018 comment)
