Romon - Iwata

The Fumon Hachimangu Loumon, which is designated as a cultural asset of Shizuoka Prefecture as an elegant gate that retains the style of Junwa from the Momoyama period. Many of the buildings in the prefectural Hachimangu shrine were built during the Edo period, but according to the “Hachimangu Shrine”, the Romon and the main shrine are Tofukumon-in, the daughter of the second shogun Tokugawa Hidetada. It is said that it was erected in 1635 (Kanei 12 years) by donation. Fuhachiman Shrine's Romon Gate is a two-story gate called the Seitomon Gate, and the Toshiwama Gate God and Toishiwama Gate God in the form of a warrior wearing a garment strap on both sides. (She) is sitting to protect the gods and correct their prestige. This “self-portrait” is also designated as a cultural asset in Iwata City. About 1635 (Kanei 12) when the Fumon Hachimangu-romon was erected, it was the age of the 3rd shogun Tokugawa Iemitsu. 1635 was the year in which Daimyo's attendance shifts were made (a regular shift of each lord from April to April or from Edo to Edo every year). . The prefectural road 56 (Tenpira-dori) running from Mitsuke on the west side of Fuhachimangu Shrine toward JR Kamata Station is the former Tokaido. If you think that the procession of each kite going back and forth between Edo by attendance change always passed by the Otorii gate and the Romon gate of this Hachimangu shrine, you will feel some historical romance.

It ’s a nice place with a nice atmosphere. The red stamp also has a beautiful pattern with different designs depending on the season.
