Kyoto🇯🇵Kenko Shrine

The figures enshrined here are Oda Nobunaga and his son Nobutada, who everyone has heard of. Nowadays among young people, this shrine gathers many tourists from historical comics and animations. Next, let’s introduce some history. This Kenhun Shrine was built 150 years ago during the Meiji era. Some people may think that this was the Azuchi-Momoyama period in which Oda Nobunaga survived, but this is not the case. This is a relatively new shrine in Kyoto. It is said that the benefits include the fulfillment of great wishes, good luck and fortune, overcoming difficulties, and eliminating disasters and difficulties. Now let me introduce the story of how this shrine was established. Emperor Meiji believed that the reason why Japan did not become a colony of other countries at that time and had developed to this era was thanks to Nobunaga's achievements. It is said that the city was established to commend Oda Nobunaga's achievements. #2024TravelReview
