This time, I would like to introduce Hagurosan Shrine in Ishinomaki City, next to Minamisanriku-cho where the hotel is located.
Along with Hiyoriyama Park, it is known locally as a famous cherry blossom viewing spot, and it is also popular as a walking course due to its excellent view.
If you go around from the Ishinomaki City Library side of the stairs that continue from the precincts, you can also climb on a relatively gentle slope.
If you walk from Ishinomaki Station, you will have to climb 275 long stone steps.
It consists of two shrines, Toya Shrine and Haguro Shrine. There is Toya Shrine in front.
The view looking back from Toya Shrine.
Dragons are often placed in shrines, and it is said that they borrow the power of the dragon god to bring luck.
Many people come to see the cherry blossoms at Haguroyama Park during the cherry blossom season.
At the shrine office, you can purchase a Blue Impulse stamp book, and some people come just to buy it.
Access to "Hagurosan Toya Shrine " ; About 50 minutes drive from our hotel.

The other day, I went to ”Jogi-san”, a temple of the common people's worship, which has been the heart of many people since ancient times. .. The official name is Jodo-shu Gokurakuzan Saihoji Temple.
A magnificent mountain gate welcomes you.
On both sides, there are statues of Nio with a brave face.
The mausoleum "Sadayoshido", which stands on the tomb of Taira no Sadayoshi, can be seen in front of the mountain gate.
"Matching God Tree" It looks like one, but it was originally two zelkova trees.
Hydrangea was in full bloom.
O-HONDO / Main Hall
The Jogi Amida Nyorai, which is the principal image, is enshrined.
The interior of the main hall is brilliantly decorated.
Five-Storied Pagoda
The five-storied pagoda was erected as a symbol to pray for the memorial service of Tairano Sadayoshi and the permanent peace of humankind.
After worshiping, most people go to the long-established tofu specialty store "Jogi Tofu Store". Here you can enjoy the famous "Triangle Jogi Aburaage(deep-fried bean curd)".
Lightly sprinkle with red pepper and soy sauce, it's delicious!
Access to "Jogi-san Saihoji temple" ; About 2 hours drive from our hotel
