A historical walk in Kuwana! Visit Chinkoku Inari Shrine and Kuwana Sosha Shrine ⛩️

Enjoy a slightly more grown-up historical walk in Kuwana, Mie Prefecture, a town overflowing with tradition and atmosphere♪ The first place you should visit is Chinkoku Inari Shrine, with its beautiful bright red torii gates. The vermilion torii gates lined up along the narrow approach to the shrine are a popular photo spot, and you'll be enveloped in a sacred atmosphere every time you walk through it✨. Especially in spring, the plum and cherry blossoms in the shrine grounds add color to the scenery, making it feel like you're in a picture scroll. And just a few minutes' walk away is Kuwana Sosha, worshipped as the main guardian deity of Kuwana. Locally known as "Kasuga-san," the impressive tower gate and historic worship hall are highlights⛩️. The atmosphere of the shrine grounds is very calming, and it's a healing space that will make you lose track of time. 📍Basic information (check the website for the latest information) ✴︎Chinkoku Inari Shrine: 27 Minamiuomachi, Kuwana City, Mie Prefecture ✴︎Kuwana Sosha: 46 Honmachi, Kuwana City, Mie Prefecture ✴︎Access: 15 minutes on foot from JR/Kintetsu Kuwana Station ✴︎Fee: Free to visit ✴︎Opening hours: Free to visit (Shrine office is open from 9:00 to 17:00) 🌟Travel Tips ・The road from the station is full of Kuwana specialty clam dishes and Japanese sweets shops!
