Shiraitohama Shrine - 養老敷島角 Maizuru

nothing special

I go to Hatsuman every year.

A shrine with a very friendly priest.

Nothing special, but a traditional shrine The atmosphere is good. It is a photograph at dusk.

It is a shrine that was trained in the Meiji period, but the lord of the shrine is Maizuru's oldest family.

It is a shrine in the city of Higashi-Maizuru, and it seems to be officially described as Shirahama Shrine. The site was relatively large and the entire site was beautifully maintained, not to mention the magnificent main shrine. If you asked for a red stamp, he would be happy to write it!

Shiraito Hamajinja is located in the eastern part of Maizuru City, Kyoto Prefecture. It is a relatively young shrine built in 1913 in the guardian forest on the east side of the Yohoro River in Hama, Maizuru City, Kyoto Prefecture.

It is a magnificent, beautiful and calm shrine that seems to be valued by local residents. Shirahama Shrine was created by enshrining three shrines, Inari Shrine, Ebisu Shrine, and Minazuki Shrine, due to the large land readjustment of the eastern district following the conversion of Maizuru to the military port in 1913. Currently, the site of Minazuki Shrine is the Maizuru Branch Office of the Kinki Finance Bureau, the site of Inari Shrine is Yashima Park, and the site of Ebisu Shrine is part of the Shichijo Shopping Street. In the precincts, there are company name stone markers, guardian dogs, Myojin torii gates, stone lanterns, bronze lanterns, worship halls, and Setsumatsusha. A company name stone engraved with "Shirahama Shrine" is erected. The Myojin Torii on the approach to the shrine is covered with a flat frame marked "Shirahama Shrine". The hall of worship is covered with a flat frame that says "Ebisu Okami, Minazuki Okami, Inari Okami". The main shrine is a flow structure. Setsumatsusha includes Shirahama Tenman Shrine, Osugi Inari Okami, Iwashimizu Hachiman Shrine, Awashima Shrine, Akiba Shrine, Kompira Daigongen, etc. A magnificent bronze lantern is placed. It is said that the stone used for the chozubachi is one of the stones used in the stone chamber of the ancient burial mound (Haseyama burial mound) located on Haseyama on the east side about 500 meters upstream along the Yohoro River.

Originally, I wanted to pay attention to this shrine because when I visited a shrine in the Tajima region (northern part of Hyogo prefecture), an ancient prince named "Omote-American prince" was often enshrined. The Imperial Prince of the United States is also the royal family of the Asuka period in the genealogy of Emperor Kaika, or the prince of Emperor Kotoku at the time of the Taika Reform. It is said that this Omotesando prince is the ancestor of the Tajima Kunizo family and the ancestor of Mr. Kusakabe, a powerful family. It is said that the army of Silla on the Korean Peninsula, which invaded "Shiraitohama" in Tango, the Imperial prince of the United States, was repelled as a general by the order of the emperor. That's why I thought that this shrine was an old shrine that has been associated with the Imperial Prince of the United States since ancient times. It's a relatively new shrine, and it's a shrine that has nothing to do with the Imperial Prince of the United States.
