Come in money! Come! Come to the Kinshesui Shrine! ⛩️

After visiting Takekoma Shrine, we went to a nearby fried pork cutlet restaurant, Tonkatsu Futsugi, for lunch. This store is located next to Ermu Park - the so-called "Ermu" is actually a pine tree with two main trunks branching out from the base, hence the name. This kind of natural Y shape is quite rare in Japanese gardens. After lunch, we took a taxi to the Kinshe Water Shrine. I later discovered that there is actually a shuttle bus from Iwanuma Station to the shrine parking lot. Maybe because today is the first day of Golden Week (April 29), the parking lot of the shrine is packed with private cars. There was a huge crowd on the way from the parking lot to the worship hall. We had to queue up to pay incense and worship, and the queue lasted about ten minutes. Kanahei-suijinja Shrine (かなへびすいじんじゃ) is a local shrine dedicated to the god of water and the god of wealth, and is famous for praying for wealth, business prosperity, and good health. Since the name of the shrine contains the word "snake", it is often associated with the gods of wealth, white snakes, dragon gods, etc. in Japanese beliefs. In spring, cherry blossoms are in full bloom and the peony garden also attracts a large number of flower lovers. There is also a Okuni Shrine on the hill next to the shrine, which enshrines Okuninushi. We climbed the mountain to enjoy the flowers. In addition to seeing the cherry blossoms unique to this area, we also admired many improved varieties of rhododendrons. Looking down from the mountain, we could see the peony garden in the distance. The scenery was quite beautiful.
