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

An amazing shrine (jinja) I definitely recommend visiting it. The air was fresh and the shrine was absolutely beautiful. As I walked further, I found a magnificent tree with ropes wrapped around it. This tree resembles a cedar tree and is over 1,000 years old. It has been designated as a national natural monument. It is said to have been planted by Taira Shigemori of the Taira clan at the end of the Heian period. I recommend going in autumn.
