Gegu and Jogu
The main shrine is located about 400 meters northeast of the main shrine, and is called "Gegu" (lower shrine), while the main shrine is called "Jogu" (upper shrine).
The main hall of the main shrine was rebuilt in 1845 in the Shinmei-zukuri style, similar to that of the Ise Jingu Shrine, with a girder length of 3 ken and a beam length of 2 ken.
Heavy Cultural Properties Komainu (stone guardian dogs)
The tuff stone stone guardian dogs standing on either side in front of the shrine gate were made in the Azuchi-Momoyama period and are designated as National Important Cultural Properties of Japan.
The right paw of the A-shaped guardians is broken and has an iron ring on it. It is said that Iwami Shigetaro, a general of the Sengoku period, cut down the guardians when they appeared in Hashidate and misbehaved in the past.
Okumiya Manai Shrine
Manai-jinja Shrine enshrines Toyoke-no-okami, Amaterasu-no-okami, and other deities.
According to shrine legend, Toyoke-no-okami, now enshrined at the outer shrine of Ise Jingu, was originally enshrined at the site of Manaihara (present-day Okumiya Manai Shrine).
Behind the main shrine there is a ritual site where the deity was enshrined on a rock in the days when there were no shrines, and it is popular as a power spot.
National Treasure “Amanohashidate”
Amanohashidate (National Treasure, Kyoto National Museum), painted around 1501 by Sesshu, an ink painter and Zen monk active in the Muromachi period (1336-1573), depicts Kono Shrine.
Kasamatsu Park
Amanohashidate Cable Car and Lift Fuchu Station is located behind Kono Shrine, and from here you can take the cable car or lift up Mt.
The view of Amanohashidate from Kasamatsu Park is called "diagonal one-letter" because the sandbar extends straight up to the right.
It is also said to be the birthplace of the famous "crotch peepers," and when viewed upside down, it looks like a bridge spanning the heavens, with heaven and earth reversed.
