    Miyagi Pref. Sendaishi Miyagino-ku Tsutsujigaoka 105-3
    This shrine is a three-minute walk from the JR Senseki Line's Tsutsujigaoka Station. It honors Tenijn, a god of scholarship and the deified form of Sugawara no Michizane. Loved by the locals, every year during exam season it fills with students and their parents praying for success. There are a number of stone stele with haiku carved on them on the precincts, including one by Matsuo Basho. There's also a nade-ushi statue of a cow tied to a legend concerning Sugawara no Michizane. Lots of visitors come annually to see various flowers in bloom, like cherry blossoms, azaleas, and Sugawara no Michizane's beloved plum blossoms.

    榴岡公園を見学した後で駅の方向に戻る時に立ち寄りました。駅からだと少し距離があります。天満宮ということで菅原道真が祀られています。天満宮らしい梅の木と共に、榴岡公園と同じく桜もあるので季節によって様々な花を愛でることができると思います。

    Miyagi Pref. Sendaishi Taihaku-ku Akiumachinagafukuro Shimizukubokita 22
    Akiu Shrine is located right at the center of Akiu Sato in Sendai City. It's said that the deity of Kumano-jinja Shrine was first brought here over 1,200 years ago when the shogun Sakanoue no Tamuramaro subjugated the Emishi in the year 808. In the Muromachi period, the shrine came to be associated with a war god, and today it's honored by a flow of visitors from around the country for help winning contests and games. An unusual persimmon tree on the grounds is also enshrined as a god of matchmaking. Other sacred trees include a gingko dedicated to childrearing, a lucky cherry tree, and a luster-leaf holly tree with matchmaking powers.

    大きな特徴的なものは無いかと思いますが地元の神社的な存在でしょうか。 子宝なオブジェがリアルで吹き出しそうになりました。

    仙台市市街地の南東にある神社です。神社からは仙台市市街地を一望でき、凄く眺めが良いです。きっと夜景も綺麗だと思います。

    Miyagi Sendai-shi Izumi-ku Ichinazaka Nishiura 61

    仙台市泉区にある、縁結びで有名な神社との事。泉中央エリアに訪れた機会に行ってきました。住宅街の中の静かな環境の中にありました。 おみくじ引くと大吉 (^o^)/ 新元号:令和が始まって間もない時期、新たな気持ちでお参りしました。 成就…どうやろ(;^ω^) 頑張ります!!

    Miyagi Sendai-shi Wakabayashi-ku Kinoshita 3-9-1

    もともとは奈良時代後半、国分寺創成期と同時期に創建されました。現在の社殿は江戸時代初期のものだそうで、県指定の文化財になっています。少し寂しいかなと感じます。

    Miyagi Sendai-shi Miyagino-ku Iwakiri Ao O Sawa 32

    車がないといけない場所ですが、お正月の初詣などでは賑わう神社です。おそらく普段はひっそりとしている神社だろうと思います。

Miyagi Areas

Lying along the northeastern coast of Japan, Miyagi prefecture is home to lashings of natural parks, oysters, and hot springs. While the bustling city of Sendai offers some simple city entertainment, it’s the Matsushima islands that deserve the most attention, having boosted the prefecture’s reputation as one of Japan’s most scenic views.
