Original Text

About 10 minutes walk from Nobeoka station. Built in 750 by soliciting USA Hachimangu. The deities are Honda Betsuson, Sorenagaashi Nisurison, and Tamayorihime-mei. A huge guardian dog is enshrined beside the torii gate. There is a shrine at the top of the granite stone steps (Japan's best stone steps) through the Shinbashi and the vermilion-painted Shinmon. The shrine is covered with wooden copper plates and the front of the hall of worship is painted vermilion. This worship method is the same as Izumo Taisha shrine, "Two Rei, Four Applause, One Rei", so there is no doubt.

A shrine with the best stone steps in Japan

Original Text

It is a shrine that is one of the three major ebisu shrines in Kyushu. At the end of the red Shinto gate, there was a stone step called "Japan's First Stone Stage". It wasn't a lot of steps, and I wasn't sure what was the best in Japan, but since it was written as a granite stone step, it was using expensive stone materials like the one used for gravestones. I think it is the most expensive stone steps in Japan. In the hall of worship at the end of the stone steps, it is written that "the worship manner of this shrine is two worships, four applause, one worship", and there are two more applause than the general worship method ...

It's an old shrine.

It seems that it was made using the mountains in the center of Nobeoka. Probably the birthplace of Nobeoka. If you go up a pretty stone steps, you will find the head office. It seems that it was solicited from USA Hachimangu, but it seems to be older than that.

A shrine within walking distance from Nobeoka station

Original Text

It is within walking distance from Nobeoka Station, right next to Imayama Park and Imayama Daishi. Big tree 々 is thick in the surrounding area, creating the atmosphere of the shrine. The stairs are quite long, but you can go up to the top by car, so it gives the impression that it is relatively easy to reach.
