Shuzenji Hie Shrine - Izu

I am overwhelmed by the couple cedar. Originally "Hie Shrine", the Sanno shrine of Shuzenji. ] ・ Mr. Hie Shrine, a shrine in the Shuzenji hot spring town. ・ Originally, it is said that Kobo Daishi was erected at the Sanno shrine (chinjugami) of Shuzenji, but it seems that it was separated by the order of separation of Shinto and Buddhism in the early Meiji era. ・ Of particular note is the “Musou Sugi” that rises above the precincts and is over 800 years old. A magnificent tree with the roots of two cedars united. Perhaps because of that, many people come to the office to ask for "children's prayers" and "matchmaking." Benefits include family safety, promotion of breeding, and others. ・ Although it is not in a conspicuous place, when you walk in, you will be overwhelmed by the towering "Meotosugi" in front of you. When you visit Shuzenji Onsen Town, why don't you stop by to see "Meotosugi" and pray for it?

A shrine that stands quietly in a hot spring town. The big tree of Quercus gilva, which is a natural monument designated by Shizuoka Prefecture, and the big tree of Sugi, the god tree, were really big and were overwhelming. You can also worship the red stamp. The initial charge was 300 yen.

♪ ︎ Former Shuzenji Sanno Shrine …… Several private houses are lined up between Shuzenji and Hie Shrine, but they are adjacent to each other by a block wall from the middle. If you look into the mountain behind the temple from here, you can see the waterfall through the gaps between the trees. ♪ ︎ Giant trees stand out in the precincts, and there is a solemn atmosphere ♪ ︎ The site of Shinkoin is one of the eight towers of Shuzenji Temple, and Shokakuin and Toyoin existed in the Edo period, but now Shokakuin remains the only one. Others are Shochikuin, Nichidoin, Bairinin, Kokouin, and Heikyouji. ♪ ︎ The votive tablet in the precincts is a white flower and Tannuriya, according to tradition. 2021/11/26

Although separated by the Meiji Shinto and Buddhist decree, Hie Shrine was part of the neighboring Shuzenji Temple. In addition, it is said to have been built by Kobo Daishi as the Sanno shrine (guardian) of Shuzenji, which is the demon gate of Shuzenji. When you enter the torii gate, you will be surprised at the giant trees that cover the approach. Furthermore, on the right side of the hall of worship is a giant tree of Quercus gilva, and on the left side is a couple cedar with one root called Koho no cedar. If you leave the gate of Shuzenji and walk along the narrow streets of the hot spring town for a while, you will immediately see the torii gate of Hie Shrine, but unlike the warm air of Shuzenji, you will be overwhelmed by the presence of huge trees. Also, on the side of the approach, there is the site of Shinkoin, where Minamoto no Yoshitsune's half-brother, Minamoto no Noriori, was imprisoned and was killed at the end. Also, across the river, there is Tomatoyu (restored outdoor bath), which is said to have been bathed by the assassinated second shogun Minamoto no Yoriie at that time. I think it was a difficult place, unlike the solemn atmosphere that doesn't make you feel the current buoyant world. In addition, Shigetsuden, where Hojo Masako was donated to Shuzenji in prayer for the soul of his son's second shogun, Minamoto no Yoriie, is also across the river, and you can also worship the "Shaka Nyorai sitting statue" with a lotus flower on your left. .. When Hojo Masako visited this place, there was no couple cedar at Hie Shrine, but what would you think if there was one? Minamoto no Yoritomo has two sons and two daughters, but the only one left is Take no Gosho, the daughter of Yoriie, and Masako Hojo who took over and raised the Take no Gosho. The couple cedar at Hie Shrine, which did not exist 900 years ago, makes me wonder what kind of emotions I had in the quiet precincts.

January 2022 While Shuzenji is bright, this shrine is dark and calm, so I think you have different tastes. It seems that there is a benefit to the couple and the child treasure, and many such wishes are written on the votive tablet. Two large cedar trees are attached to the base of the precincts, which is a good point for shooting.

There were fewer worshipers than Shuzenji, and I just remembered Kinomiya Shrine. Standing in front of the gate, climbing up the stone steps, passing through the torii gate, and at the end of the narrow approach, the roof of the company like the picture in the frame of the painting, the old giant cedar trees on the left and right of the stone steps, the giant tree of the natural monument No. 1 oak When you go up the stone steps for about 18 steps, you will be overwhelmed by the forest of Osugi, which is a couple of cedars in the precincts. I think that the number of worshipers at a shrine with such assets will increase at once depending on how it is directed and shown.
