Video introduction to the precincts of Atsuta Jingu Shrine in Nagoya City, Aichi Prefecture This video, titled "Atsuta Jingu - Nagoya - Aichi - 熱田神宮 - 4K Ultra HD," was created by "TokyoStreetView - Japan The Beautiful." The video portrays the grounds of Atsuta Shrine (Atsuta Jingu) in Atsuta, Nagoya City, Aichi Prefecture. Atsuta Shrine, known affectionately as "Atsuta-san" to the locals, has a long and rich history. Besides the main shrine, there's "Atsuta Shrine Grove" (熱田の杜) with its towering camphor trees. The entire space is filled with spiritual energy. In this article, we'll introduce the must-see areas and visitor information about the shrine. From the video alone, you'll get a sense of how it feels to walk through the quiet and serene atmosphere of the shrine. What Kind of Place Is Atsuta Shrine? Photo:Atsuta Shrine in Nagoya City, Aichi Prefecture Atsuta Shrine is an ancient shrine with around 1,900 years of history. The enshrined deity, Atsuta-no-Ookami (熱田大神) represents the sacred sword Kusanagi shinken (草薙神剣), one of the Three Sacred Treasures of Japan. The Five Great Gods of Atsuta, including Amaterasu-Omikami (天照大神) and Takehaya Susanoo-no-mikoto (素盞嗚尊) are enshrined as well. The shrine is a 3-minute walk from Jingu-Mae Station (名鉄神宮前駅) on the Nagoya Line (名鉄名古屋本線). Right in front of the station is Atsuta Shrine Grove. By car, the shrine is 10 kilometers away from the Nagoya Minami Interchange (名古屋南IC) on the Isewangan Expressway (伊勢湾岸自動車道). Parking is available at the shrine as well. At Atsuta Shrine, around 60 ceremonies and events are held every year, with the most popular being the "Atsuta Festival" (熱田まつり), held on the 5th of June. The shrine also attracts many visitors on occasions such as the first day of the year, Shichi-Go-San, and weddings, as well as for shrine visits or collecting shuin. A Look at the Grounds of Atsuta Shrine Photo:Atsuta Shrine in Nagoya City, Aichi Prefecture The video begins at the "East Gate" (東門) closest to Jingu-Mae Station. This can be seen from 0:05 in the video. Inside the shrine, there's the East Entrance, West Entrance (西門), and Main Entrance (正門). As seen from 0:34 in the video, visitors must conduct ritual cleansings of their hands and mouth before entering the shrine. A row of sake barrels can be seen, with the 1000-year-old camphor tree "Okusu" (大楠) standing near by. Continuing on, you'll find the main shrine. This can be seen from 2:10 in the video. In the video, you can see the prayer hall (祈祷殿) where purification rituals are conducted, as well as the praying area for shrine visits (神楽殿). Behind the main shrine is the path "Kokoro-no-Komichi" (こころの小径), and further in, you can find Ichinomisaki Shrine (一之御前神社) where Amaterasu (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amaterasu) is enshrined. This is known as the most spiritual place within the shrine, and access to the path is only open between 9 am and 4 pm every day. Another power spot is "Shimizu Shrine" (清水社) where the deity of water is enshrined. Other spots for prayers include the Minami-Shingu-Sha Shrine (南新宮社) where Susanoo is enshrined, Kusunomi-Mae-Sha Shrine (楠之御前社) where the deity of childbirth is enshrined, Hakken-gū (別宮八剣宮) where a sacred sword is enshrined, Kamichikama Shrine (Sessha Kamichikama Shrine, 上知我麻神社) where the deity of wisdom is enshrined, as well as Okuninushi-sha(大国主社) of the deity Daikoku (大黒様), and Kotoshironushi-sha (事代主社) of the deity Ebisu (恵比寿様).

日本文化の尾張七宝をご紹介! ここでは、日本文化が誇る伝統工芸品の一つである尾張七宝について『手技TEWAZA「尾張七宝」Owari Cloisonne』の動画を元に、ご紹介させて頂きます。 尾張七宝とは、江戸時代後期に、現代で言う名古屋市に当たる『尾張』で『梶常吉作』が作ったのが起源とされています。 日本が誇る伝統工芸品の一つで、現在にまで伝わってきたものです。 1867年には、パリ万博に初めて日本の七宝焼が紹介されました。 様々な技法によって作られている尾張七宝ですが、特に有線七宝という技法が有名です。 まるで七つの宝を散りばめたかのような美しさと模様とデザインの多様さが魅力で、値段も高級な物から手ごろなものまで幅広く、贈り物として多くの人に愛されてきた伝統工芸品です。 その美しさは今回紹介させて頂いている動画でも感じることが出来ます。 現在では、愛知県あま市七宝町を中心に販売や教室が開かれていますが、後継者不足で職人が減りつつある現状となっています。 尾張七宝の制作工程 伝統工芸品である尾張七宝は、日本の文化として江戸時代から現在まで、制作工程がほぼ変わらずに伝わってきました。 工程としては、【素地作り→下絵付け→銀線付け→釉薬差し→焼成→研磨】となっています。 特に、秘伝の調合と専用の施設によって生産をされている釉薬には並々ならぬ拘りがあります。 焼成によって収縮してしまうので、【釉薬差し→焼成】の工程を繰り返さないといけません。 伝統工芸品「尾張七宝」のまとめ 日本の文化において世界に誇ることが出来る伝統工芸の一つである尾張七宝についてご紹介をさせて頂きました。 ぜひ興味があれば、愛知県あま市にも足を運んで見て、実際に日本の文化と伝統工芸に携わってきた職人の匠の技を体験してみて下さい。 -

Video introduction of Nagoya Castle, a sightseeing spot in Nagoya City, Aichi Prefecture This video, titled "Nagoya Castle Main Tower Keep Promotional Video," was released by "2010Network." Nagoya Castle is a huge castle built in Aichi District (愛知郡), Owari (尾張国), formerly known as "Owari no Kuni," during the Warring States Period (1467-1615 AD). There are many castles in Japan, but the magnificent Nagoya Castle is by far one of the most popular among tourists. Nagoya Castle is a famous landmark housing many national treasures, including the superb castle tower. In 2018, the number of visitors to the castle exceeded 2.2 million. The History of Nagoya Castle Since the Warring States Period Photo:Nagoya Castle, Aichi Prefecture Nagoya Castle was built by Tokugawa Ieyasu, who emerged victorious from the decisive Battle of Sekigahara, and was built in nearby the ruins of Nagoya Castle (那古野城, Nagoya-Jo), said to be the birthplace of Oda Nobunaga. Tension was increasing with the forces of Toyotomi Hideyoshi during this period, and Ieyasu built Nagoya Castle as a key military location. Nagoya Castle served as the residence of the lords of the Owari domain for generations during the Edo period (1603-1868 A.D.) after Yoshinao Tokugawa, the founder of the Owari Tokugawa family. It became the Nagoya Detached Imperial Palace for the use of the imperial family after the Meiji period (1868-1912 A.D.). In the Showa period (1926-1989 A.D.), it was designated as Japan's first National Treasure as a castle building. Since then, it has continued to be open to the public as a highly popular tourist attraction. The Must-See Features of Nagoya Castle Photo:Nagoya Castle, Aichi Prefecture Nagoya Castle is also known as "Kinshachi Castle" (金 "kin" meaning gold) after the golden Shachihoko that decorate the castle tower, which has become a symbol of Nagoya. Besides the main tower keep, the magnificent honmaru (inner citadel) and Shoin Hall are must-see features. The outstanding Stone Walls of Nagoya Castle were built via stonewall construction in various areas, including the Mikawa Bay (三河湾, Mikawa-Wan) area. Kiyomasa Kato played an active role in the construction of the stone walls, and the huge stone said to be the largest stonewall in Nagoya Castle is called "Kiyomasa Stone." Enshu Kobori and Masakiyo Nakai were in charge of the construction of the castle tower. This is detailed at 1:10 in the video. When you visit the Sarumenbogaku Tea House, Yuin Tea House, and shops, you may also want to visit the Oribe-Do, which was built to honor Oribe Furuta. Nagoya Castle's Castle Tower Under Reconstruction! Photo:Nagoya Castle, Aichi Prefecture Since May 2018, the demolition and renovation of Nagoya Castle's castle tower has been carried out as the "War Damaged Wood Restoration Project" (戦災木造復元プロジェクト). The restoration of the wooden castle tower is scheduled to last until December 2022. Everyone is looking forward to seeing the restored castle tower once the restoration is finished.

Hideaki Mori is a tsugegushi comb craftsman born in 1983 in Aichi Prefecture. He is the third generation of "Tsugegushi Shoten," a long-established comb manufacturer. The tsugegushi comb is made from the wood of the Japanese boxwood, and in spite of its hardness, the teeth are hard to break and strong and static electricity does not occur easily because of the elasticity. For these reasons, the comb has long attracted users as a top quality comb. When Hideaki was a university student, he saw the reaction of the customers who used tsugegushi combs and realized the splendor of the tsugegushi combs. Upon graduating from college, he became an apprentice to his father, Shingo Mori, the third generation of the family, and has continued to hone his skills. -
