Tannaiyama Shrine

Hanamaki City

Southern Iwate

    This is a shrine where Fujiwara Kiyohira is said to have donated Buddhist statues and sacred treasures, and to which he believed deeply. It became the general guardian of the southern territory, and the current shrine building was rebuilt in 1810. The transoms on both sides of the shrine hall, the side shoji screens, and the front lattice doors are decorated with beautiful carvings. It is said that if you can pass through the large stone at the back of the main shrine without hitting the wall, you will receive blessings. This is a mysterious shrine with the ``Seven Wonders.''
