【vlog】梅の季節 合格祈願と梅まつりで有名な湯島天満宮へ参拝に!
Today, I came to visit Yushima Tenmangu Shrine. Speaking of Yushima Tenmangu Shrine, it is famous as a shrine for praying for entrance exams. It is a shrine dedicated to Michizane Sugawara and is also called Yushima Tenjin.
As soon as you cross the road, you will see a nice gate. Now I can see it, and it’s quite crowded.The gate is decorated with plum blossoms, and the gate is engraved with a cow, which is closely related to Michizane.Next to the
Gate, there is a dilapidated plum stump as a shrine. I could have started from this gate, but since I was there, I headed a little further to the Omote Torii.I arrived at the Omote Torii! This is a copper torii gate that was donated in 1667, so you can feel the weight of history.There
Are many stalls on the main street.When I asked the stall owners, they said they only open on weekends.There are various things. I’m curious, but first I’m going to visit the shrine. There’s a nice cow here too!
It is called a “patted cow” and it seems that the area where you stroke it will get better.I would like to touch it right away, but since it is a sacred child, I need to cleanse my hands… The chozuisha does not have a ladle and is made of bamboo.Once
Again , there is no ladle. Mr. Cow! It’s a divine figure! I had my head bowed ♪ Now that I had purified my mind and body at the chozuya , let’s go to worship right away . I straightened my posture and said two bows and two claps.
The content of my prayer is a secret. ♪ Now that I’ve finished visiting the shrine, I’m going to pray again. I took a look at the shrine building♪ The shrine building is said to be in a style called “Gongen-zukuri”, and the main shrine and worship hall are connected by a heiden.The
Roof is decorated with various decorations such as guardian dogs and plum blossoms.Colors It is rich and luxurious, and the tree that stands next to the shrine is also magnificent! There are a lot of fortune-telling fortunes tied around the shrine building, as well as a lot of votive tablets for praying for success.It
‘s definitely a shrine for praying for success! There is a wooden walkway between the main shrine and the shrine office. It is called the Taikobashi, and it has an air of elegance.
Normally, it is not possible to cross it, so only the bride and groom and their guests can access it during the wedding ceremony. I heard that you can cross the river.I would like to walk around this place in Japanese clothes♪ Yushima Tenmangu Shrine is famous for praying for entrance exams, but it
Is also a famous place for plum blossoms, as you can see on the pedestal of the guardian dog.It’s a little early to get to the plum festival, but you can walk around the precincts. We’re taking a walk♪ Everyone is petting the cows♪ Huh? Strange green ice man stone?
When I looked into it, I learned that it was called a “lost child notification stone marker” and was used to find lost children.Since the Edo period, the precincts have been so crowded that many lost children have appeared.The “passing amazake” is truly a shrine for praying for successful exams
, everyone. People are admiring the plum blossoms while drinking amazake.They are beautiful plum blossoms♪ The plum blossoms soothe me for a while… They are beautiful pink plum blossoms♪ It’s a magnificent weeping plum♪ Ah! I found Uguisu! ! Plum blossoms and nightingales are a wonderful combination♪ We were both happy, but…
Huh? wait a minute! If you have white around your eyes…you are a white-eye! I’m sure it won’t cry “ho ho ke kyo” for some reason (;^_^A I found a plum tree with bright red flowers behind the chozuya. This color is also lovely ♪
Right next to it is a plum tree with pure white flowers. It’s a plum tree.It’s a nice garden.Perhaps it doesn’t get much sunlight, but it seems like it will take a little longer for it to reach full bloom.The sound of the waterfall is soothing♪ It’s soothing.Turn
To the other side and take a look at the garden.The waterfall, the stream, and the bridge. It’s a wonderful garden where you can enjoy both the grain of the plum trees and the sound of the trees♪ A tea shop is handing out tea!
I took the opportunity to have some shiitake mushroom tea♪ I went around the back side of the main shrine and went down a steep slope called Meoto-zaka. Those who come to visit the shrine by stairway train will come up from these stairs.If
The plum blossoms bloom here too, it will be a beautiful scenery♪ Go around the main shrine and come to the left side facing the shrine.It is a lucky charm. The awarding place where you can receive the gift is also beautifully designed. There is also a beautiful plum tree here!
It is the starting point of the “Learning Path” that continues from Yushima Tenmangu Shrine to Okachimachi.It is a steep staircase called Otokozaka (;^_^AThe “ Yushima Tenjin Slope View” depicted by Hiroshige Utagawa in his 100 Famous Views of Edo is This is the view from this place.
Now that you’re hungry, let’s take a look at the food stalls! Scooping up a super ball! It’s so nostalgic ~ Good luck! What’s the deal with the colorful chocolate bananas and the march of koalas on either side? Okonomiyaki looks delicious too ♪ Tama konjac! I like simple things like this ♪ It
Has a lot of flavor and looks delicious ♪ I got one ♪ A staple at food stalls! I found a large takoyaki! It looks delicious ♪ Staff When I got back, I ordered one! They deftly packed it into a pack.
I thought there were 6 pieces, but it turned out to be 5 pieces (;^_^A You’re not very good at putting mayonnaise on it. Eat with two skewers like chopsticks. It’s piping hot, fluffy, and delicious ♪ The Daifuku shop also has a passing letter!
I’m surprised that even Daifuku is in the passing series (゚Д゚;) When you purchase it, you will receive a passing origami. The amazake shop in front of the plum garden where everyone was drinking it seems to be a specialty of Yushima, so let’s have one ♪ The gentle taste will permeate your cold body.
There was just a vacant bench, so you can take a breather while looking at the beautiful plum blossoms ♪ Although it was a little early for the plum blossoms to be in full bloom, there weren’t that many people before the plum festival, so
We were able to enjoy the grounds in a relaxed manner ♪ It was the perfect time for the two of us, who don’t like crowds. We would like to visit again.
梅まつりには少し早かったですが、湯島天満宮へ参拝に出かけていました。
合格祈願の神社として有名なこともあり、境内には合格祈願の絵馬やら合格祈願に因んだ販売がなされていました。
