Yuhara Shrine - Tone District

It is a little high overlooking Minakami Onsen.

Although it is a small shrine, it is loved by locals when visiting Shichigosan. Located on a hill to watch over the Minakami Onsen✨

The water station is about 20 minutes away.

A very beautiful shrine, more classic as you know it from anime or VN playing in the country. He is not so pritzvoll but just with the magnificent view over minakami simply a must!

Positionally, "Yuhara Shrine" is at the end of the stairs going up the high retaining wall of the uphill where "Naritasan Mizujoji" and "Mizukami Junior High School entrance" are written just at the intersection of Route 291 and Prefectural Route 270 There is, however, if you try to climb up to the precinct by car, you will not know the entrance well, and it is too much if you go to junior high school or even if you go to Mizukamidera. You have to get in. There are no signboards for the shrine, so it may be somewhat difficult for people who are first to drive by car navigation or smartphone maps. However, the shrine is located on a high retaining wall that overlooks the Minakami Onsen town, and it has a refreshing atmosphere with a good view and a pleasant breeze. In the southeast corner of the precinct, there is a small "Sanbo Shrine" Ishigaki in a position where you look at the hot spring area with your back to Yuhara Shrine. There is a well-made Sanmine-san on both sides of Ishigaki. At the far right of Yubara Shrine, there is also Yubara Inari Shrine and a number of Ishigaki on the left side of the shrine. Yuhara Shrine History Yuhara Shrine was founded as Suwa Daimyojin, whose age is not known, but the reverence of the warlord Takemon was especially revered, especially in the post-Nishi-Ama period (1656), and there was a yearly donation to the owner of Numata. As Yubara, Anogawa, Tanigawa, Tsubino, Yoshimoto, Kanozawa Rokumura's Yusuhara Suwahara, as a guardian of Kanomachi, once again, was descended in 1973. It was a ritual of reconstruction, and it was called Suwahara after visiting Horai. In 1943, Noharasha Inari Shrine, which was worshiped at the stage of Yubara on Yubara, Nouchisha Shimeisha, a nostalgic company, Kamimeikyu, who was worshiping in Kushihara, Shiinahira Shrine, Shibahiragu Shrine. It has changed to Shiyuhara Shrine. On October 12th (1933) Yubara Shrine was lined up with a village company. In 1937, at the time of the Great Fire at Mizukami Station in front of the Great Fire, the building was destroyed by the fire, so the building of the building and the premises was planned in the center of Minakami Onsen. Yuhara Shrine was relegated to Yuhira on Yubara. During the war period, the construction materials were scarce. In addition to building the building as a full-blown building, it reached the end of the Thirty-Year Starry Frost. 1963 (1961) As expected, as the shrine property was acquired as part of the road pavilion on the occasion of the establishment of the Toya-no-Osaka Prefectural Toll Road when the shrine was completely desolated, 1965 It is decided to add the price and the waste land sale money, and to make special donations from Shunko and to apply for the shrine construction fund with the special donation, and obtained the permission of the Shinto shrine government office on May 13, 1945 (1966). Started a restoration and reconstruction project, and a worship hall was erected in the same way as the wooden color print Tansu 4 Building and the Tang Gauze Kasuga Sumi Koin. The main building is a moat, and the main hall moves to the existing building, and a new inari shrine is built in the middle ground of the precinct, and water construction, dedication, construction of Mitarashiya and other attached structures are completed, A motorway leading to Minakamibesen was also completed. (Excerpt from the precinct monument)

I went after seeing Inari Falls. From Inari Falls, walk a little along the prefectural road 270 toward the hot spring town. There is an uphill side road like a mountain road, and it is close to walk here. Nobody was at the shrine and it was quiet. There was also Mimine Shrine in the precincts.
