[Wakayama] Hayatama Taisha Shrine, one of the Kumano Sanzan shrines

Visited in April 2023 *Kumano Hayatama Taisha Located at the mouth of the Kumano River, the shrine grounds are home to a large "Nagi tree" that is a sacred natural monument. ✨ The current shrine building was burned down in September 1883 and rebuilt afterwards, but the World Heritage Site includes the shrine grounds, the "Kamikurayama" behind it, the "Mifunejima" floating in the Kumano River, and the "Otabisho"😊 It is said that the shrine building was built and enshrined at the current location to welcome Kumano Gongen, who descended to Gotobiki Rock at the southern end of Kamikurayama😊 Since then, it is said that this place has been called Shingu in contrast to the original shrine on Kamikurayama☺️ #Pilgrimage #Kumano Sanzan #Kumano Pilgrimage #Kumano Hayatama Taisha

Kamikura Shrine

Staying in Shingu for a day post Kumano Kodo trek. Walked to the Kamikura Shrine precinct and enjoyed the serene greenness of the area. The first run of stairs leading up the hillside to this shrine is the steepest and most daunting, but the views over the city are totally worth the 500+ stair climb to this pretty little shrine. Just take it slow and easy and you'll reach your reward. There's a windy dirt trail that bypasses these steep stairs and leads from a flat rest point at the midpoint of the climb down to the bottom. It looks to some folks like it might be easier to take than the stairs, but I think the many tree roots on this path actually make it more dangerous, particularly if there's been rain and the soil is slick. Our legs went straight to muscle memory and enjoyed climbing up the steep steps. Spectacular views across Shingu to the sea. A very enjoyable experience. #givethanks #givethanks
