    Hyougo Pref. Kawanishishi Tadaintadadokorochou 1-1
    This historic Shinto shrine founded in 970 has ties to Seiwa-Genji. One of the Three Genji Shrines, it honors Minamoto no Mitsunaka and has been designated a National Historic Site because of its pedigree. The shrine's treasure house holds the Minamoto Clan's Onikiri-maru sword, as well as armor and ancient documents. The grounds also feature rare camellia varieties like Camellia reticulata and Camellia japonica that are a sight to behold when in bloom. Visitors pack in for April's Genji Festival featuring a parade of samurai and other historical figures connected to the Genji clan in period dress, such as Tomoe Gozen and Shizuka Gozen. You can reach the shrine by walking west from Tada Station on the Nose Electric Railway's Myoken Line for about 15 minutes.

    静かで雰囲気のある神社です。 御祈祷が有名のようです。 参拝の方は結構いますが、なぜかとても静かでした。

    Hyogo Tanba-shi Kaibaracho Kaibara 3625
    "This shrine is located a five-minute walk from Kaibara Station on the JR Fukuchiyama Line. The shrine, which was established in the Heian period, enshrines Homutawake no Mikoto (Emperor Oujin), Okinagatarashi-hime no Mikoto (Empress Jingu), and Hime Mihashira no Mikoto (the collective name for the Shinto goddesses Takirihime no Mikoto, Tabitsu-hime no Mikoto, and Ichikishima-hime no Mikoto). The shrine building, which was reconstructed on the orders of Toyotomi Hideyoshi, has been designated as a National Important Cultural Property. The temple's three-storied pagoda and hanging bell have been designated as Important Cultural Properties of Hyogo Prefecture. Every February, the shrine holds Grand Yakuyoke Festival, familiarly called ""Tamba Kaibara no Yakujin-san,"" which is visited by many people from all over the country."

    現地の方は「八幡さん」と言ってました。それほど親しまれている神社です。観光案内所前にクルマを置き、小高い山の上に柏原八幡宮があります。神社に登る階段の頭上にうっそうとしている木々は、日光を遮ってくれると思います。 神社に着いたら小雨が降ってきたので、下りる時は階段が滑るか気になりました。 神社の造りがちょっと独特です。また後ろに朱色の三重の塔があり、ユニークな神社でした。

    Hyougo Pref. Kawabeguninagawachou Kimokawa Nishinomae 136
    "This small Shinto shrine is located in the residential area of Tsutsujigaoka west of the Shinmei Expressway's Kawanishi Interchange. Honoring the deity Amenotajikarao-no-mikoto, the main shrine is a National Important Cultural Property. It's well preserved and still has some of its original frog-leg struts called ""Kaerumata"". The shrine's date of origin is unknown, but it's been worshiped as the guardian sanctuary of Kimokawa since ancient times and has legends connecting it to Shinto mythology. A large fir tree on the precincts is said to be the fifth largest in Hyogo Prefecture. The area around the shrine is covered with cedar trees, giving it a refined atmosphere."

    Hyogo Tamba-Sasayama-shi Kuroka 1015
    This Shinto shrine is located in the urban center of Tamba-Sasayama. The shrine was moved to its current location one thousand years ago during the Jogan era when a portion of the deity enshrined in the Kasugataisha Shrine in Nara was ritually divided and transferred to Sasayama Castle (now a ruin) during its construction. Seen as a guardian shrine of its parishioners since ancient times, the shrine is famous for its Noh theater stage, which was built thanks to a donation by Aoyama Tadanaga, the 13th lord of the bygone Sasayama Domain. Great Tamba ware pots were placed under the stage to reflect and enhance the sound of steps on the stage's floorboards, and it is said it was the finest Noh stage west of Hakone at the time. Even today, performances of traditional shows and dances are held using the stage, such as the Okina-mai dance, Sasayama Kasuga Noh, and the Tamba Night Noh, conveying the arts and culture of ancient times to modern generations.

    Hyogo Kawanishi-shi Obe 1-chome 13-17

    Wikipediaなどでは「おおべじんじゃ」となっていますが、境内の看板や、賽銭箱上にあった神社の案内文では「おべじんじゃ」と説明されています。 小戸神社は、川西能勢口駅から10分程東に歩いた場所にあり、創祀年月は不明ですが、市役所近くの小戸遺跡から古墳時代以降の土器などが出土しており、昔から人々が生活していた土地のようです。樹齢約600年、室町時代に植えられたであろう県の重要文化財・天然記念物...

    Hyogo Sanda-shi Miwa 3-5-1

    三田駅の駅の近くにあります。御祭神は大己貴神とのことです。無料の駐車場がありますが、正面の鳥居からは入れないので、少し道順がわかりにくかったです。境内にお参りす順序の案内がきれいに作られていて、それにそってお参りしていくことになります。ちょっと新鮮な感じを受けました。

Hyogo Areas

Hyogo prefecture stretches from the north coast to the south coast on the western end of the popular Kansai region, encompassing verdant mountains, urban beaches, and fantastic historical sights. The prefecture’s main attractions lie along the south coast at Kobe, the prefectural capital, a pretty harbor city best known for its production of the renowned Kobe beef, and Himeji, the home of Himeji Castle, one of the country’s most beautifully preserved feudal castles, perched magically atop a hill.
