    Gifu Pref. Gifushi Inabadori 1-1
    The Inaba Shrine has for many centuries been a place of great spiritual importance for people living in the region. Dedicated to the worship of the Shinto deity Inishiki-Irihiko-no-Mikoto, the Inaba Shrine was originally a place where prayers were offered to protect against floods. In recent years, the Shrine has become very popular with worshippers wishing to pray for the safety of family members or for business prosperity, with people paying their first visit to a shrine in the New Year, with families celebrating the Shichi-Go-San festival, and with worshippers offering up prayers in relation to childbirth, traffic safety, construction or irrigation projects, etc. The Shrine preserves a set of chronicle scrolls of its own origin and history, which has been designated an Important Cultural Property by Gifu Prefecture. The Inaba Shrine is located around 15-minute drive from JR Gifu Station.

    （ぜんこうじ）と言います。真言宗醍醐派の寺院で、山号は愛護山。本尊は善光寺如来。善光寺安乗院ともいいます。通称は「岐阜善光寺」、「伊奈波善光寺」。美濃新四国八十八ヶ所の第1番札所です。お賽銭がなんとPayPayで納められるんでびっくりしました。拝観料は、無料です。

    Gifu Pref. Gifushi Kanoutenjinmachi 4-1
    Saito Toshinaga was a military commander who ruled over Kano. He was devoted to Tenmangu Shrine and had Tenman installed as a guardian deity when he built Kutsui Castle in 1445. Kutsui Castle was abandoned after that, but the locals maintained their belief in the shrine. When Tokugawa Ieyasu built Kano Castle in 1600, as the shrine is on the premises, he had it moved to its current location and rededicated. It enshrines Sugawara-no-Michizane. Known as a deity of scholarship, lots of worshipers come to pray for success with exams.

    Gifu Pref. Kakamigaharashi Nakatedikarachou 4
    Located in Kakamigahara City, this shrine is dedicated to a god of sports and physical power, and is known by local residents as “Tedikara-san.” It is said to bring good fortune and luck in battle since Oda Nobunaga prayed for victory there when attacking Inaba Castle. While is it unclear the exact year when it was constructed, it is believed that area rulers performed rituals at the shrine around the end of fifth century. Under the eaves of the main shrine building, there are two dragon sculptures, one on each side of the building, wrapped around beams that were said to once move around, and they have been registered a cultural property by the city as “Ryu no Shiyu” (The Dragon Couple). In addition, besides the special red seals distributed for summer shrine visits, they also publish information from time to time on social media.
