Sanctuary - Sakurai

It is speculated that Takeshi Umehara is a shrine that enshrines Jojo, the eldest son of Nakaomi Kama feet (Fujiwara Kama feet). Sadatsuki points out that he may have been a child of Emperor Kotoku and could not escape from the suspicious Emperor Tenchi. After returning to Japan as a ambassador for the Tang Dynasty, he was poisoned in the village of Ohara at the foot of Tanzan Shrine. There is also a theory that the second son of Nakaomi Kamashita is Fujiwara Incomparable, but this is the child of Emperor Tenchi. Mr. Takeshi Umehara speculates that the shrine is filled with the sadness that the fate that once attacked the ancient prince and the Arima prince fell on the eldest son as well. This is the Tanzan Shrine in Meiji, but until then it was a temple. I forgot my name. Kamaishi et al. Made a plan for assassination of the deer at this temple, and then escaped here. There is a legend that assassination of Soga Iruka and then the Prince Daichu and Nakatomi sickle feet fleeing to the temple where Tanzan Shrine is located, the cut Iruka's head flew in the air and followed them. There is a legend that the necks, who lost their eyes, worried about the father and nephew remaining in the mansion on Gansu Hill, aimed at their own mansion, but fell to the place where there was a headhill in Asukaji. .

The main shrine of Kasuga-zukuri, Sangensha, is built in front of the building, and it is a gorgeous building decorated in vermilion. Built in 1850, a statue of Fujiwara no Kamatari is enshrined inside. The form of the main shrine surrounded by the east-west corridor is said to have been used as a sample of Nikko Toshogu, and is sometimes called Nikko in the Kansai region.

Click here for your red seal. The pleasant mountain breeze is comfortable in early summer. Be careful as there is no place for water. Also ... Almost on the way up the stairs, so it might be better to have a stick.

The autumn leaves were good, but there were many tourists and many people without masks. I don't seem to check at the entrance. That is the deduction. Yes, it's a place.

Two weeks ago, there were still many autumn leaves, but I wonder if there were many fallen leaves due to the rain a few days ago. However, Tanzan Shrine in autumn colors is a good one!

Deity: Fujiwara no Kamatari Place of residence: 319 Tonomine, Sakurai City, Nara Prefecture It is quite enshrined in the mountains. There are narrow roads along the way, so please drive safely. Parking lots (1st to 4th) and toilets are fully equipped, and wheelchair users have a priority parking lot near the Nishiiriyama exit. When I went there, it was a little early for the autumn leaves and it was a weekday, so it was in a rattling state, but because there were many autumn leaves trees, there were many worshipers and the parking lot was far away during the autumn leaves season. I thought that the walking distance would increase a lot. I talked a little with the priest when I got the red stamp written directly, but it seems that it was originally a temple, and like the tower gate, the temple remains strong, such as the world's only wooden 13-storied pagoda. In addition, the buildings are all important cultural properties and are worth seeing. The hall of worship at Tanzan Shrine, the tower gate, the east-west corridor, and the 13-storied pagoda are especially wonderful. Why don't you take your time to worship slowly?

A shrine that requires an entrance fee. I have never been to a shrine that requires an entrance fee, so if I am confused about how to enter, the receptionist will give me a strong instruction. Let's respond reassuringly. The stairs are long, so you will feel refreshed while climbing. And when I see various things, I feel like paying more entrance fees. Everything was a shrine that I felt connected.
