➸Tips
︎︎︎︎︎︎☑︎ The height of Japan's largest Daikokuten is 20 meters, weighing 8.5 tons.

︎︎︎︎︎︎☑︎ To reach the main shrine, you must climb steep stone steps.
︎︎︎︎︎︎☑︎ The atmosphere around the shrine at the top of the stairs felt incredibly sacred.

[Gunma] A picturesque storehouse-style curry and coffee shop
Introducing a curry and coffee shop with a lovely storehouse!! Shimonita is a town with a very nice atmosphere✨
It's famous for its green onions and konnyaku💡⠜The spicy curry I ordered🍛 was half chicken and half shrimp·͜·✌︎´-The chicken is slightly spicy and the shrimp is sweet, so if you don't like spicy food, you can just have shrimp curry🙆♀️
Of course the curry is great, but the building is really cuteᴸᵒᵛᵉ·͜·♡It's a shop that was renovated from a rice storehouse🧸If you go to Gunma, please stop by🌈ᵕ̈*

[Gunma Prefecture/Nakanotake Shrine] A shrine that will leave you astonished by the series of strangely shaped rocks
I visited Nakanotake Shrine at a good time when the cherry blossoms were in bloom.
And it was a fine day.
The large Daikoku-sama (big daisaku) stands out against the blue sky,
and the deity, Todorokiwa (a rock formation), stands tall.
Myogi-san is one of the Three Great Scenic Spots of Japan.
The strange rocks and rock peaks are overwhelming, with a ruggedness and natural beauty, the more you look at them.
It's definitely worth seeing!
┈┈┈┈┈┈┈ ❁ ❁ ❁┈┈┈┈┈┈┈
❥❥History
The shrine has long been dedicated to Hakoso-kami, the god of Mt. Myogi.
Myogi-san was originally called Hakoso-yama (mountain).
It is said that when Emperor Yamato Takeru climbed Mt. Myogi, he defeated bandits who were bothering the villagers.
As a result, the enshrined deity became Emperor Yamato Takeru.
During the reign of Emperor Kinmei, the shrine was built by the Myokata clan.
The shrine developed based on the belief that a god would descend from the giant rock, Todorokiwa.
