    日本三大金運神社の一つと聞き参拝いたしました。 清掃がしっかりされており澄んだ空気で、居て気持ちがいいです。 晴れた日の裏山(?)ハイキングも気持ちいいです。

    Chiba Pref. Tateyamashi Sunosaki 1344
    A Shinto shrine at Mt. Mitarashi honors the deity Amenohirinome-no-Mikoto. Worshiping there is thought to offer all sorts of benefits, like easing childbirth, providing safety at sea or on the road, good fishing, bountiful harvests, and warding off ill-fortune in general. After Minamoto no Yoritomo was defeated at the Battle of Ishibashiyama, he stopped there to worship. Since he prayed for better fortune for his clan, the shrine's also known for restoration and revival. There's a view of the Pacific Ocean and Mt. Fuji from the precincts.

    館山駅から路線バスを利用して行きました。長いのぼり階段をのぼりきると拝殿があります。また、景色が良い富士見鳥居などあり鳥居のバックが海一面で景色が良かったです◯

    Chiba Pref. Minamibousoushi Chikurachouminamiasai 164
    This is a shrine in Minamiasai, Chikura-cho, Minamiboso City. As the history of the shrine is very old, there is even a description of the shrine in the Nihon-shoki (the oldest chronicles of Japan). Also, it is known as the only shrine in Japan that is dedicated to the god of cooking and it gathers faith from many people in the food industry. A “Knife Ceremony” takes place annually in May, October and November, where a fish is prepared using just a knife and chopsticks and dedicated to the god.

    駐車場は道の反対側にあり無料です 社殿は茅葺の神明造 境内は掃き清められ明るい感じです 拝殿の両脇に庖丁塚があります 使わなくなった包丁を持っていけば良かったなと思いました

    Chiba Pref. Tateyamashi Yawata 68
    Tsurugaya Hachinmangu is a shrine located in Hachiman in the city of Tateyama. It was originally built in the early Heian period (794?1185) in Fuchu in the present-day city of Minami Boso as the main shrine for the old province of Awa. Its major festival in September, Awa Yawatanmachi, has been held continuously for about 1,000 years and has been designated a Prefectural Intangible Folk Cultural Property. The festival procession features mikoshi (portable shrines) from ten shrines, four large floats, and a ship and draws large numbers of spectators.

    館山の街中で交通量の多い道沿いににあります。アクセスは良く、広い駐車場もあります。参道が長く境内もまた広く静かで落ち着いた雰囲気の神社です。
