"Kobe Foreign Settlement The Miracle of Building 38" Building No. 38 from the time of the foreign settlement in Chuo-ku, Kobe City, is a very retro Western-style building. The building is accessible from northeast to southwest, where a statue of Nike, the winged goddess of victory, is installed. According to the description below the statue ... Nike is the goddess of "production" and "victory" in Greek mythology, and it is said that since ancient times, it has been attached to the end of the ship as a goddess statue to pray for safe navigation and the realization of dreams. This 38th building is currently owned by the Daimaru Kobe store, but this Nike statue was installed here to pray for the recovery of not only the Kobe store but also the region, likening the building to a ship. In the morning darkness, the rising light shone in from the atrium sky, and the red bricks embedded in the surrounding floors emerged along with the statue of the goddess. Each of these red bricks has many heartfelt messages to Kobe! I feel energized when I come here, and this may 😊 be a real "hidden gem".

It will be a Setsha located in Shiroishi Ward, Sapporo City, at a power spot called Kamyori Valley of Shiroishi Shrine. Shiroishi Shrine is the second most popular shrine after Hokkaido Jingu Shrine with many first-time visitors. I love it and visit it a few times a year. Summer is also beautiful, but the vermilion shrine is beautiful in the pure white scenery of winter, and although it is cold, I go there after the heavy snowfall. There are many benefits, but more than that, I feel like I go there because I want to experience beauty. The explanation on the official website of this Shiroishi Fushimi Inarisha is named Shiroishi Fushimi Inarisha with the shrine on September 9, 1977 (Showa 52). The main deity is Inari Okami. I also visited Fushimi Inari Taisha Shrine in Kyoto, and although it is certainly small in scale, I still feel the power. There are many Setsha shrines in Kamyoriya, but they all have power, so I would like you to visit carefully.

Among the shrines in Sapporo City, it is especially known as a "power spot for matchmaking". The god enshrined is "Tennokogu Yamamei", which is also the great-grandson god of Emperor Amaterasu. The reason why it is called Yahiko Shrine is It is located in [Yahiko Village] in Nishikanbara District, Niigata Prefecture, and it is said that this is because Mt. Yahiko is enshrined as a sacred mountain. The reading of the shrine is "Noyahiko", but the place name is read as "Yahiko", No, no, Yahiko, it seems that it is called by both names. The god of learning, Sugawara no Michishinko, is also enshrined here, and is called the Heavenly God of Sapporo. It's exam season, so why don't you go visit us?

It is located on top of a small Tenjin Mountain at an altitude of 89 meters. Therefore, it is quite a slope to climb. By the way, there is a grave right next to it, and it will be the approach to a slightly unusual shrine. Some people may have headaches. But it's a shrine worth going all the way to. First of all, the main deity is Tenno-gochu no okami (Amenominakanushi no Okami) It is the first central shrine of the universe that appears in the Kojiki. In Sapporo, this god is the main deity here and Suitengu. Also, the sacred tree that you can see when you climb up the slope. The power is amazing. It's really amazing. This is a Shibakuri tree, which is more than 300 years old. I feel that the spirit dwells. The neighboring Tenjinyama also has power, so please go there together. #Sapporo #Power Spot #神社巡り
