  • Murayama Sengen Shrine
    Travel / Tourism
    Shizuoka Pref. Fujinomiyashi Murayama 1151
    This shrine is located in the Fujinomiya City of Shizuoka Prefecture. It is one of the many Asama Shrines throughout Japan, and was registered as a Cultural World Heritage site because of it being a constituent asset for being the source for making Mt. Fuji an object of faith and the inspiration of art. The primary deity is Konohanosakuyabime. Being that Mt. Fuji was formerly a site for ascetic monks, even today in the main sanctum's Dainichi Hall are preserved the Dainichi Buddhas reflecting the historic period when Shinto and Buddhism were taught together. The great cedar and great ginko trees within the precinct are desginated as Prefectural Natural Monuments.

  • Kintoki Shrine
    Travel / Tourism
    Shizuoka Sunto-gun Oyamacho Nakajima
    "Located a 15-minute walk from Suruga-Oyama Station or a 25-minute drive from the Gotemba Interchange, this shrine is northwest of the station inside Kintoki Park. Volunteers built the shrine building to enshrine Sakata no Kintoki, the ""Kintaro"" of the famous children's song, on the site of what is said to be his home. Since prayers offered at the shrine are said to be effective in promoting safe childbirth, raising children, and children's health, many parents visit the shrine with their children. During November, the local tourism association sponsors Shichi-Go-San (a blessing for three-and seven-year-old girls and five-year-old boys). Legend has it that Kintoki's mother Yaegiri gave him his first bath in the waters of Chorori Nanataki Waterfall on the mountain behind the shrine."

    神社の裏側から進入、狭い駐車場があります。入り口付近は、駐車場がないので少し探し回りました。駅近くですので、大きな境内ではありませんが、大きな杉の木が本殿裏にあり、いいかんじの神社です。参拝者も少し来ていました。。

    Shizuoka Gotenba-shi Kawa Shimata 496

    御殿場駅からは徒歩で20分近く歩いた県道394号線沿いにあります。町の観光パンフに載っていたので、興味津々で訪れましたが、まず手前には土俵などがあり、普通こういう土俵が奉納されている神社では、土俵は四阿などで覆われていることが多いように思うのですが、ここのは屋根もなく雨が降ったら大丈夫なのかなと心配になりましたが、それだけ水捌けの良い土壌なのかも、等と、色々と想像力も掻き立てられました。また、安全...

    Shizuoka Fuji-shi Motoichi Ba 582

    米之宮公園の駐車場が神社の裏にあるのでそちらに駐めましたが、正面から入って行ったすぐの所にも何台分か用意されているようでした。朱塗りの鳥居をくぐり、下馬の高札が立つ石造りの鳥居の向こうの朱塗りの橋を渡ると、参道の正面に拝殿があります。 街なかに在りながらひっそりとした素敵な佇まいでした。クマゼミはシャーシャーと喧しかったですが。 御朱印は拝殿に向かって左側の社務所で頂けます。

Shizuoka Areas

around-area-map

With the giant Pacific Ocean to the south and the great Mount Fuji to the north, Shizuoka prefecture is blessed with some of the best views the country has to offer. The white sand beaches of the Izu Peninsula are a rare find on mainland Japan, neighbored by beautiful cliffs, tumbling hills, and natural hot springs. As Japan’s largest producer of green tea, the age-old tradition of tea drinking is ubiquitous in Shizuoka, from the miles of tea fields to the old tea houses hosting traditional tea ceremonies.
