Inaba-jinja Shrine
Shrine
The Inaba Shrine has for many centuries been a place of great spiritual importance for people living in the region. Dedicated to the worship of the Shinto deity Inishiki-Irihiko-no-Mikoto, the Inaba Shrine was originally a place where prayers were offered to protect against floods. In recent years, the Shrine has become very popular with worshippers wishing to pray for the safety of family members or for business prosperity, with people paying their first visit to a shrine in the New Year, with families celebrating the Shichi-Go-San festival, and with worshippers offering up prayers in relation to childbirth, traffic safety, construction or irrigation projects, etc. The Shrine preserves a set of chronicle scrolls of its own origin and history, which has been designated an Important Cultural Property by Gifu Prefecture. The Inaba Shrine is located around 15-minute drive from JR Gifu Station.

- 山裾にあっても大きな神社です
- 無料駐車場は坂道の上下に2カ所あります。境内は近づくにつれて大きさに驚きます。社務所の巫女さんも手際よくフレンドリー。好感が持てました。拝殿へのスロープがないので、足の不自由な方などは手前の鳥居の下に大きな賽銭箱が置かれているので、そこでお詣りをされると良いでしょう。
