島根を観光するなら出雲大社は絶対に外せない!日本の古き良き文化を再認識できるおすすめ観光スポットです!
こちらの記事では、島根県の王道観光スポット、縁結びで有名な出雲大社について紹介致します。
また、出雲大社周辺へのアクセスや駐車場情報も合わせて紹介させて頂きますので要チェックです。
島根県出雲大社とは
出雲大社とは、正しくは「いずものおおやしろ」と読み、島根県出雲市にある縁結びで有名で、島根以外にも全国から参拝客や観光客が訪れる神社です。
八雲山を背にするように建っており、その歴史は、日本最古の歴史書である古事記にも創建の記載があり、数千年を超えることがわかります。
主祭神は「大国主大神(おおくにぬしのおおかみ)」で、縁結びの神様と言われています。
島根県出雲大社は日本唯一の神在月
日本は通常旧暦の10月を「神無月」と呼びますが、島根県の出雲地方では日本で唯一「神在月」と呼びます。
これは、全国の神様が旧暦の10月に島根県の出雲大社に集まるため、そのほかの地域では神様が居なくなるからという説があります。
「神在月」をより実感することが出来るイベントとして、島根の出雲地域では旧暦の10月・神在月になると、神様を迎える神迎祭(かみむかえさい)、八百万の神が縁結びや来年の収穫について話し合う神在祭(かみありさい)、神様がそれぞれの国に帰る為の神等去出祭(からさでさい)という一連の祭事を行います。
この時期になると島根以外にも全国から多くの観光客が集まり、出雲大社を参拝に訪れます。
島根県出雲大社へのアクセスや駐車場情報
島根県出雲大社への観光の際はレンタカーを借りることをおすすめします。
自動車での出雲大社へのアクセスは、、JR出雲市駅から約20分でアクセスできます。
駐車場は出雲大社周辺に無料で利用できる場所がいくつかあり、収容台数も多いので、通常であれば土日でも停める場所がないということは無いでしょう。
しかし、先述の神在月の期間や、正月、お盆、ゴールデンウィークなどの大型連休や観光シーズンの際は非常に混雑します。
上記期間に参拝・観光を検討される場合は、JR出雲市駅に隣接している一畑電車をご利用することをおすすめします。
島根県出雲大社紹介まとめ
島根県出雲大社について紹介させて頂きました。
出雲大社は非常に厳かで神秘的な雰囲気を持つ観光スポットです。
日本の古き良き文化を直に感じることが出来る神聖なスポット。
是非、島根観光に来た際は出雲大社に足を運んでみてはいかがでしょうか。
