[Nara Prefecture] A trip to reminisce at shrines with historical anecdotes

Originally called Yoshimizu-in Temple, it was a prestigious Shugendo Buddhist monastery, but it seems to have been renamed Yoshimizu Shrine during the Meiji period. There are many historical anecdotes, such as the place where Minamoto no Yoshitsune hid with Shizuka Gozen and Benkei, and the place where Toyotomi Hideyoshi used as the main camp when he held a grand cherry blossom viewing in Yoshino. In addition to visiting the shrine, the exhibits in the Shoin are a must-see! Take the ropeway from Yoshino Station to Yoshinoyama Station (about 5 minutes) About a 25-minute walk from Yoshinoyama Station Information current as of May 2022. #Breathtaking views #Historical sites #Support tourism #Shrine tours #Shrines and temples #Yoshino #Nara trip #Photogenic spots #gw2022jp#Photogenic spots
