Nagikama Shrine ⛩ The other day, I went to visit the Yabukama Shrine in Kirigamine for the first time.　Last year, I heard Torii shrine gate ⇒ that there was a "Nagikama Shrine" that had been changed to a wooden stone monument, and I was originally thinking of going there because of the thaw, and I decided to go with the words of my wife, who loves Kirigamine.　As a lover of pillars, I have come to like visiting shrines and other places, and I have always wanted to go to the Yabukama Shrine, so I thought I finally had the opportunity to go to Kirigamine with my camera. 　I parked my car in the parking lot under the ski resort and headed towards the glider pavilion as I heard from an acquaintance, but I was not confident and was nervous, and there was a small sign in front of the glider pavilion that said ⇒ Yagikama Shrine 0.5 km, so I headed there.　I felt that it was surprisingly far away.　Together with his two children and his wife, he walked for a few minutes while touching the nature of Kirigamine.　I could see the stone monument of the Nagikama Shrine.　Since it is a shrine, the Torii shrine gate is more chic, but this is also a stone monument and it is quaint!! I thought. The approach road was also paved with wood chips, and it was very beautiful and maintained and easy to walk.　When I arrived at the Shrine, there was a breathtaking view...　For the first time in a long time, I couldn't suppress my excitement. The fact that the day I visit was sunny was also α to the superb view, and it was wonderful!!　The Suwa Basin spreads out below, Lake Suwa Lake stands very beautifully, the Central Alps are in front, the Northern Alps are on the right, the Southern Alps are on the left, Mt. Fuji is on the side, and Yatsugatake is behind the left. Isn't there a shrine in Japan where you can see the mountains like this? I think so!! 🏔 As a self-proclaimed hunter of Suwa City's spectacular scenery, this spectacular view immediately became a ranker!!　Tateishi Park also overlooks Suwa-no-Taira and has a very good view, but this one has an indescribable beauty because the Elevation Gari even higher.　I post that this is not only in my heart!! The shuin stamps is new, and if you are visiting the shrine of Suwa, please stop by when you come to Kirigamine!!　If it's sunny, I don't think you'll regret it! ・ God of worship Kenmikata Ōkami also known as Osuwa-sama : Takeminakata God of valor, fertility of five grains, etc.　 ・ Daisen Ōkami Ōyamatsumi : As the god of industry and shipping, as well as the god of sake dissolution, the ancestor of sake brewing ・ Ashinazuchi Tema Milk Ōkami Tenazuchi ⇐ Parents of Kushinada Hime Kushinada Hime : Susanoo's wife Here, the Dedication of the Nagi Sickle a sacred vessel shaped like a sickle found in the former Motomisayama Ruins is dedicated.

As you all know, Suwa Lake is famous for crossing the gods, but do you know Other about the mysterious natural phenomenon of "Oshi-shi"?　 Suwa Lake has particularly strong winds in winter, and once the ice that has not been completely frozen breaks, and the ice fragments are pushed up to the shore by strong winds, a phenomenon called "yomi ice". This seems to be a natural phenomenon that can be seen in large lakes and not in rivers that stream all the time. The pieces of ice look like large pieces of glass, and you can see a fantastic scenery by layering them. In addition, the ice reflected by the sunlight looks very beautiful. Take a walk, take pictures, or experience the fantastic winter Suwa Lake while running or walking. I haven't been out for 6 years, including the last winter. It is not always possible to see the ice and the god crossing. Therefore, in winter, we distribute live videos on the website of the Suwa Tourist Association. We strongly recommend that you check the videos before visiting. ◎ Even if there is ice, riding on the ice is very dangerous because there is a risk of falling into Suwa Lake. Please be sure to observe good manners and watch from a safe place.
