Mutsukunugihachimangu - Yamagata

There was a shrine office on the other side of the shrine and he rushed to us.

Despite the lunch break, they were willing to respond. After making many wishes, the Omikuji is Daikichi after a long time! ️

We are enshrined in a quiet part of a residential area! There are many large "Keyaki" trees in the precincts, but the sacred tree is "Kunugi" as the name suggests! You can also get a red seal at the precinct award hall! In the past, it was said that this area was called Rosuwara-no-sato because there were six nuts!

I think the grounds are wide in the city. There are large trees of persimmon. A part of the grounds is a children's park and it can be a playground for children. There were no gods when I visited, so I would like to make a reservation or call if you have a business condition. There are large oak trees so it's comfortable.

Read as Mutsunugi Hachimangu. The great zelkova on the site is wonderful. It is said that during the Tenpyo period, the guardian-general Shojin Ono, Tojin was founded. He came to this place in the 6th year of Heian period Kohei, Minamoto Yori, and the 9th year before Yoshiya. I prayed thickly for the victory. After the dispute was settled, he reported to Shinon Hou Xie that he built a shrine and dedicated the silk black ground. In the first year of the North and South Korean era, when he joined Sonami and Yoriyamagata, he established the shrine as a generational prayer place, with the name of Mr. Somoto Motogen. Its descendant Yoshimitsu Mogami, the 5th year of Keicho's 5th year Sekigahara battle, won the Uesugi army, won a triumphant reverence, and donated the shrine, military flag, and shrine. In the 7th year of Kanei after the renovation of Mogami, he built the Yamagata Castle Lord Torii Tadahiko Palace, which is now the main shrine. In the Edo period, 48 stones were stamped on since the first year of Kei'an, and they have been greatly revered by successive lords such as Horai, Masayuki Hoshina, Masaaki Hotta, Ryocho Akimoto, and Tadasei Mizuno. In May 1906, it was listed as the first prefectural company in Yamagata City. Since ancient times, Yamagata Castle Shimoichi Yen has been revered as the Shishiko area of ​​the Hachimangu Shrine, and now has more than 6,500 Shishiko units and 40 Yomachi districts. Furthermore, even in the middle of the city, there are many giant trees that are hundreds of years old in the vast precincts, and the spirit of cleanliness is full.

Although it is a small shrine, it was well maintained and cleaned. You can also receive a red stamp. The local honey that happened to be sold at the office was cheap. There was a rare apple blossom honey.

I went to visit the Yuan dynasty every year, but this year I avoided it because of the snow pattern on New Year's Day, so I visited on the second day. The procession wasn't that long, but as we entered the precincts, snow and raindrops were mercilessly falling from the trees. I think you should carry a hat, windshield, umbrella, etc. to protect your head ❗

I refrained from doing it last year, but this year I was able to visit the usual Yawata-sama for the first time on New Year's Day. I'm happy. I took safety measures and lined up a little.
