It is a pretty Fujizuka.

Yanaka Fuji behind the Himalayan cedar, which is a symbol of Yanaka, did not come here easily. I overlooked it because it was sober. In the Edo period, people gathered and there was a Fujiko. It is a remnant of that.

A small Fujizuka located behind Alan West's shop. The fence was removed so that anyone could see Inari's shrine, which was originally in his private garden, and in the process of maintenance, he found out that it was a rock of Fuji. This is what was prepared. Therefore, it is relatively new in Yanaka, where the atmosphere of Edo remains. However, former Inari-san is also old as it is, and the itabi on the side of Fujizuka is from the 2nd year of Jōwa (1346), so there is a valuable cultural asset to talk about the local history. It has been placed.

There is a small Fujizuka near the Himalayan cedar in Yanaka. This is a shrine where you can see and worship and check the direction of Mt. Fuji rather than climbing it completely. If you compare it to Islamic style, if Fujizuka where you can climb is a mosque, this Fujizuka is like an arrow indicating the direction of Mecca or a place of worship. … Is it more difficult to understand? Well, that's probably because Fujiko was built in the Edo period because it was Taihei Tenka and the roads were improved. The era when other lords ruled the foot of Mt. Fuji, dialects that had never been heard flew around, and samurai suspected that they were ninjas from other territories was over. At the same time, it is the Fuji worship that was made up of people from rural areas who have mountain worship and who saw that the fields could not be inherited locally or that there was a business opportunity in Edo. I remember reading a worrisome sentence when I saw a person in a Japanese language textbook who said that Soseki Natsume said, "Is it something that loses to Western Europe? There is Mt. Fuji in Japan." I learned that Soseki wanted to say that the strength of the West is the scientific civilization created by human wisdom, not the blessings of nature, but the background of the mentality that can be said that "Japan has Mt. Fuji". Considering this, it was a word that symbolized the peaceful times of the early modern period and the Edo period, when the people were able to save enough money to build Mt. Fuji and make pilgrimages to Mt. Fuji. I can think of it. I don't know much about private pilgrimage beliefs, but I don't remember seeing Fujizuka especially in Southern Kyushu, and I've heard that there is Fujizuka in Kyoto, where there are many shrines and temples. Hmm. Fuji worship may be a unique form of worship in the Kanto and Tokai regions where you can see Mt. Fuji. Perhaps because of this, there is a copy-paste that is often used as a net slang when losing competition with foreign countries, saying "Japan has four seasons" instead of "Japan has Mt. Fuji". However, the Meiji era, when it was said that there was Mt. Fuji in Japan, was just after the Edo period, and the four seasons of Japan have been around since the beginning, and the era of using them as waka poems and haiku has passed. In addition, the long rains and typhoons of the rainy season are intensifying year by year due to the effects of global warming, and in order to continue the era in which peace can be obtained with the words "Japan has four seasons", it is still necessary to have science and technology for global warming and the environment. You have to control the destruction. We must study by considering the background of the creation of Mt. Fuji, and continue to maintain a world where we can enjoy Mt. Fuji innocently and sometimes desperately in a peaceful society as in the Edo period. [Commentary] Japanese people have worshiped Mt. Fuji for a long time, but in the Edo period, a religious organization called "Fujiko" was established to worship Mt. Fuji, and Mt. Fuji mounds were created around Edo. The lava of Mt. Fuji called Kuroboku was placed, and the big one was modeled after Mt. Fuji, and the Asama Shrine was enshrined so that Mt. Fuji could be visited. This is a triangular area sandwiched between temples, and the map of the Edo period also says "Yanaka Village", and there were Fujizuka and wells, so it can be seen that it was a place where people gathered. The owner of Senjuan has been studying the culture of Edo such as calligraphy, Fujiko, and Fujizuka for many years. I felt the edge. Therefore, we received the name "Yanaka Fuji" from Mr. Atsushi Kamifumi, the priest of the Kitaguchi Hongu Fuji Asama Shrine, and prepared the surroundings so that everyone could visit. Mt. Fuji is in the direction of worshiping Fujizuka. Please visit us.

It was next to the road. It was the smallest Fujizuka I have ever seen.

I think that it will be in the middle of June 1991. An old stone shrine is set up on Kuroboku. In the precincts, there is an itabi pagoda. Inscription of Takeyuki October in the 4th year of Jōwa (1348). Amitabha triad seeds are carved, and vases are line-carved on both sides of the lower part. In the center of the lower part, there is "Jōwa 22nd year Yang Earth Rat October Yoshiday".

Mr. Fujizuka "Yanaka Fuji" sits in a triangular area surrounded by temples 20m from Yanaka's Himalayan cedar. . . It is behind the Mikado Bakery. . It opens on June 23 every year. . It's too small to climb Mt. Fuji, but you can worship all year round. . . ● Company name: Yanaka Fuji ● Address: 1-6-14 Yanaka, Taito-ku, Tokyo ● Deity: Konohanasakuya Sakuya ● Origin: ・ In the early Showa period, the old and small Fujizuka on the premises of the antique shop Senjuan was maintained so that anyone could visit it. . ・ Kitaguchi Hongu Fuji Asama Taisha Shrine received the name "Yanaka Fuji". . . ● Goshuin: No, but there was a stamp. . At the time of worship, there was no ink on the stamp pad (crying)

There was a pop on the side of the path walking from the direction of Kaneiji Temple. Recently, I often saw things about Mt. Fuji, so I learned from reading the guide version. The rock on which a small shrine rides is the lava itself from Mt. Fuji. I had an interesting experience by touching it.
