History
Shiroyama Hachiman-gu is a historic shrine enshrined on a highland in Chikusa Ward, Nagoya City. It enshrines Emperor Ojin and other Hachiman deities, and has long been known for blessings of martial fortune and victory. This place has been revered as a sacred site since ancient times and has been cherished as the protective deity of the region. Particularly famous as a power spot for matchmaking, it is counted as one of the three shrines in the "love pilgrimage tour." Within the grounds stands a sacred tree called Renri-gi, famous for matchmaking blessings, and many couples and those seeking good fortune in love visit. A wonderful shrine where one can spend peaceful moments in lush grounds while being located in an urban area.
Benefits
Tips
境内には縁結びの御神木「連理木」があります。幹周り約4m・樹高約15mのアベマキで、一度分かれた幹が再び合わさる珍しい形から縁結びのシンボルとされています。
境内に駐車場はありますが入口がわかりにくいとの声が多く、周辺のコインパーキング(徒歩2〜3分圏内)の利用が無難です。地下鉄「覚王山」2番出口から東へ徒歩約6分です。
御朱印は本殿向かって右手の社務所で受け付けています。専用の申込用紙に記入して窓口に渡す形式です。
