[Shimane Prefecture/Kamimusubi Shrine] I'm glad I went in 2023! Shimane Prefecture Shrine ④

From Kumano Taisha, take a bus back to Matsue Station. If you get off the bus and walk, you will arrive at Kamosu Shrine. A little off topic, but That night, I was talking to the owner of an izakaya🏮🍺 and told him about the shrines I had visited since coming to Shimane, he said, "Even locals don't go to Susa Shrine and Kamosu Shrine very often," and "It's rare!" 😅 It's true that it's difficult to get to because I don't use a car🚗, but I really wanted to see it🤩 The main hall, a national treasure✨ The oldest Taisha-style shrine in Japan‼ ️ The flowing, graceful curves of the roof are indescribably charming🌟 If you see a Taisha-style shrine in the Kanto region, it would be Izumo Bunshi. When you come to Shimane, you should visit Izumo Taisha, Kumano Taisha, Susa Shrine, Yaegaki Shrine, Miho Shrine, Tamatsukuriyu Shrine... As a shrine lover, this alone is like a sacred pilgrimage. It was truly amazing. I also went around to the back of the main hall and looked everywhere! The stone steps are also interesting. They are all made of natural stones. It's a little difficult to go up and down, but it's quite moving. Another unique feature is the Himorogi (sacred tree) in the precincts. This is where the Toya Shinto ritual is held. It is said that on January 4th, Izanagi and Izanami invited many gods to a banquet to celebrate the birth of Amaterasu Omikami. In accordance with this story, core farmers who grow rice throughout the year are selected, and the Toya parishioners prepare the rice, harvest the rice, and perform the ritual. It had a unique atmosphere! 　　　　 By the way, when I visited, the shrine office was empty, so I couldn't get a goshuin. ✅Checkpoints 　✔️Main hall, a national treasure 　✔️Stone steps made of natural stones 　✔️ Himorogi (Sacred Tree) ✼••┈┈┈┈••✼••┈┈┈┈••✼••┈┈┈┈••✼ ꕥShrine name: Kamitamashi Shrine ꕥAddress: 227 Sakusa-cho, Matsue City, Shimane Prefecture ꕥAccess 🚌Matsue Shinjiko Onsen Station (bus) →🚏"Fudoki no Oka Entrance" →🚶♀️About 10 minutes walk ✼••┈┈┈┈••✼••┈┈┈┈••✼••┈┈┈┈••✼ #besttrip2023 #Shimane Tourism #Shimane Trip #Shrines and Temples #Shrine Tour
