    Ishikawa Pref. Komatsushi Atakamachi Tab 17
    "A Shinto shrine more than 1,200 years old located close to Ataka Beach. Based on the legend of the samurai Minamoto no Yoshitsune and the warrior monk Benkei as retold in media such as the famous kabuki play ""Kanjincho"", this shrine is the only one in the country dedicated specifically to overcoming adversity and many worshippers offer ema votive tablets to the shrine in the hope they will overcome their own difficulties. Some of the shrine ground's highlights include a pine forest selected as one of the most beautiful stretches of pine dotted sandy beach in the country, and a monument inscribed with a poem by Akiko Yosano. The shrine can be chartered to conduct a Shinto style wedding ceremony in front of the main shrine with traditional gagaku and kagura music. The shrine, its ema votive tablets decorated with kitamaebune ships, the Kishu Festival, and the Ataka Festival were registered as part of the Kitamaebune Port of Call Japan Heritage entry in 2018."

    安宅関から松林沿いに歩くとすぐに安宅住吉神社です。本殿では巫女さんが舞を奉納しておりましたが、すぐ横には弁慶の立派な銅像がありました。一際力強さを秘めた感じが良かったです。

    白山市松任にあります。松任駅近くあります。泰澄大師が白山を開山されたあと手取川を下り白山のそうげんな姿に感銘して当地に建立された。御朱印をもらいに行きました。

Long, thin Ishikawa prefecture runs along the Sea of Japan up into Noto Peninsula. Highlights of the seaside towns lining the west coast include Kanazawa, often described as a "Little Kyoto" thanks to its old wooden tea houses and geisha culture as well as its picturesque Japanese garden, Kenroku-en.
