    Kochi Shimanto-shi Nakamurahonmachi 1-11
    A shrine constructed in 1862 by volunteers to commemorate the Tosa Ichijo clan at the site of the Ichijo Family's mausoleum at the Nakamura Gosho Ruins on Mt. Komori. Historic sites related to the Ichijos on the grounds include Fujimi-no Goten ato (site of a wisteria viewing hall) and Kesho-no-Ido well. Every year from November 22 to 24, the grand Ichijo Taisai Festival is held across the city in their honor.

    室町時代に関白まで務めた一條教房(のりふさ)が、応仁の乱の混乱を避けるため、父兼良が奈良へ、自分は所領のある幡多(はた)庄に下向して、基盤を作った中村御所のあとにある由緒正しい神社。小高い丘に建つ社殿に教房と父母が祭られていました。歴史好きにはたまりません。西側に四万十城模擬天守も見られます。 公家から戦国大名になった一条氏は、長宗我部氏に敗れるまでここで勢力を伸ばしました。 岩合光昭の世界ネコ歩...

    Kochi Shimanto-shi Fuba 1374-1
    520 years ago, the court noble Ichijo escaped the Onin War and founded a stronghold in Nakamura to manage a manor; he divided and re-enshrined the spirits of Iwashimizu Hachimangu Shrine in Yamashiro Province, creating the main guardian deity of the Hata District as well as the guardian god of the Ichijo family at this Hachiman Shrine. The main shrine was designated as a National Important Cultural Property in 1963. Festivals include a portable shrine washing ceremony on a Sunday around July 14 on the old lunar calendar; a yoimiya festival two days before Sports Day; and the shrine's main festival the day before Sports Day.

The largest of Shikoku’s prefectures, Kochi is endowed with some of the island’s most exceptional sand beaches lining the Pacific Ocean, which narrows into the Shimanto-gawa, a huge river that stretches 196 kilometers into the prefecture, passing verdant mountains and hosting countless riverside activities. Whether you’re a pilgrim or not, Kochi’s 16 Buddhist temples that make up one leg of the Shikoku Pilgrimage are worth a visit, particularly Chikurin-ji for its five-tier pagoda.
