[Imaichi Takio Shrine/Tochigi Prefecture] A shrine that was built to enshrine the deity Futarasan at the same time as the deity Nantai-san

"Takio Shrine" in Nikko City, Tochigi Prefecture 𓂃◌𓈒𓐍 𓂃◌𓈒𓐍𓂃◌𓈒𓐍𓂃 This shrine is located along the old Nikko Kaido road! In 782, when Shodo Shonin, who founded Nikko, enshrined the deity Futarasan Okami on Mt. Nantai, he also enshrined Okuninushi, Tagomihime, and Ajisuki Takahikone here. There was a statue of the enshrined deity on the left side of the shrine! If you go along the approach to the shrine, you will see the red bridge "Kangan Bridge". Here, you have to recite your wish five times before crossing the bridge, make a wish again at the worship hall, and when you return, recite your wish five times before crossing the bridge to make your wish come true. There is a touring oasis in the precincts, and there is also a sign. There is also a panel with a female rider on it! And the chozuya (purification fountain) is decorated with beautiful flowers 💐 The goshuin (shrine seal) is also cute and it's a wonderful shrine that you can't help but get lost! ✼••┈┈┈┈••✼••┈┈┈┈••✼••┈┈┈┈••✼ ꕥShrine name: Imaichi Takio Shrine ꕥAddress: 531 Imaichi, Nikko City, Tochigi Prefecture ꕥAccess 🚉Kamiimaichi Station → About 4 minutes walk ✼••┈┈┈┈••✼••┈┈┈┈••✼••┈┈┈┈••✼ #Sakura2024 #Nikko #Nikko sightseeing #Nikko trip #Shrine tour #Shrine worship
