Matsudairatoshogu - Toyota

The green is beautiful. .. When I was campaigning and got a red stamp, I was able to put it in a place where I could see the ceiling. It costs 100 yen, so if you come, I think it's a good idea to enter. It's also a good break

Matsudaira Toshogu, which is right next to the Matsudaira Township Parking Lot, is a nice place, though not very big. Especially, the area where there are wells for producing hot water and shinboku is covered with moss, and it is cool and dark on hot days. You can see the ceiling painting in the main hall for 200 yen, but those who get the red stamp can see it for free. It's OK to say that you want to see the ceiling painting at the time of the red stamp. Although the ceiling painting is new, you can explain the origin of Matsudaira Toshogu to Mr. Miyaji, and I am very satisfied just by putting it in the main shrine. The ceiling painting is beautiful and shooting is OK. Kazujun Tenka of Goshuin I also like Kiyoaki Nigetsu's seal because it's a little cute ☺️ There are a lot of carps swimming in front of the torii, so I want to feed them in vain.

Since it is a local shrine, it is a shrine that has been visited every year since ancient times. When you visit the shrine and enter the gravel road on your right for about 20m, you will find a slightly dim palace and a well of Ieyasu Kosanyu on the side. When I was a kid, I was scared because it was more dense, but now it is a beautifully maintained and slightly mysterious space. This is one of the few historic sites that Toyota City is proud of as the birthplace of Ieyasu's ancestors, as others have posted. If the first parent of Matsudaira was not indigenous to this place, there would be no Ieyasu and no Edo Shogunate, and without the Edo Shogunate, there would be no current Tokyo, and I think Japan would have followed a different capital and history. It's a deeply emotional place. From Toshogu, go up the public road to the right for 4 to 500 meters and you will find Kogetsuin, which has a beautiful earthen wall. At Kogetsuin, there was a mausoleum of Mr. Matsudaira, who has a magnificent stone staircase that houses the Hokyointo towers of the first parents and the second generation Yasuchika, as well as the tombs of successive priests. I think it is a historical history that can be seen. There was a biotope-like puddle on the side of the approach, and when I visited in winter when I was a kid, I remember being able to skate lightly in the frozen puddle. Around the puddle, there is also a hidden hydrangea spot where many hydrangeas are in full bloom, but I missed the place where it bloomed last year, so I am looking forward to this year during the rainy season. We recommend that you take a leisurely stroll through the history of the Matsudaira archaeological site, including Toshogu.

I went to "Matsudaira Toshogu" in Matsudaira Township, Toyota. "Matsudaira Toshogu" is a shrine that enshrines Tokugawa Ieyasu and Matsudaira Chikauji, the founder of Matsudaira, the ancestor of Ieyasu. In the precincts, there is a "well of hot springs" that Ieyasu is said to have used as a hot spring, and it is said that there are benefits of immortality and longevity and easy delivery. It is a popular power spot in Toyota. The place is famous for its urushi-e ceiling paintings, and it is very beautiful. It was cute that the guardian dog was wearing a mask because of the corona.

November 26, 2009 in Matsudaira Township, Toyota I went to Matsudaira Toshogu. Some of the autumn leaves had fallen, but it seems to be still enjoyable. A guardian dog was wearing a mask because of the corona. Parking is free. There is also a clean hand wash.

⭐️ After seeing the "Regional Guide Map", Ieyasu Tokugawa, who originally enshrined the mansion god of the Matsudaira family, Ieyasu Tokugawa in 1619 (Genna 5), ​​and Matsudaira Chikauji / Matsudaira Chikauji in 1965 (Showa 40). In the current shape of Toshogu, Mizubori and Ishigaki around Toshogu were built by Naoyoshi Matsudaira, the 9th generation of the Matsudaira Tarozaemon family after the battle of Sekigahara in 1600, and the Matsudaira Tarozaemon family lived in this area until the early Taisho era. I feel the history of Matsudaira Township, the birthplace of the Tokugawa family ? ⭐️ I visited the hall of worship, 108 urushi-e ceiling paintings of the hall of worship, colorful and nice ? There is a well used by the Matsudaira family for producing hot water in the precincts, and the roof is heavy for some reason, and there is a third well nearby. , It seems that there was a well for Ieyasu's hot water in Okazaki Castle ... ? ⭐️ The surrounding area is rich in nature and you can take it for a walk. You can park your car in the large free parking lot in front of Toshogu, so you can rest assured that there is a toilet ?

When Matsudaira's ancestor, Chikauji, who was a nomadic traveling priest, Tokuami, who had continued his unreliable journey, settled down here, he said, "Finally, I have a house and a family to return to. You probably wanted to shout "Oh!". It was a little disappointing to have the daughter of the small lord of Matsudaira-go, "Mr. Ariwara", and to be adopted by him. (Lol) It was a really long trip because I came from Serada, Ota City, Gunma Prefecture (there is also Toshogu in Serada). It is said that the prestigious samurai "Mr. Nitta" clan was forced to leave the area in the turmoil of the Northern and Southern Dynasties. At that time, many similar "○ Ami" were wandering around the countries, and many of them fell down due to illness or hunger, and they must have thanked God for their miraculous luck. This Matsudaira Toshogu is built in the place where it is said that Mr. Ariwara's mansion was. Toshogu is located in a small valley in the mountains, in a warm and bright place with a slight light. Matsudaira-go is a small heaven and earth with only 250 stones in the early Edo period, and I am deeply moved when I think that the starting point of the overlord "Mr. Tokugawa" is here. Ieyasu, the ruler of all Japan and the shogun general, appeared after the nine generations, and he was enshrined at the shrine as the ancestor of Matsudaira. You never dreamed of it (laughs). Even if you are just a good citizen, if you visit here, your descendants may become "the emperor of the earth and the king of the universe" in the future, and you may be promoted to "God" as their ancestor and enshrined. It may be. (Lol) However, I'm fine, so I'm grateful for the profits of this world.
