Daizenji Tamataregu Shrine

Shrine
Located around five minutes' walk from Daizenji Station on the Nishitetsu Railway Tenjin Omuta Line, Daizenji Tamataregu Shrine is an ancient Shinto shrine dedicated to Tamatare-no-mikoto, Hachiman Okami and Sumiyoshi Okami. The Shrine originally combined Shinto and Buddhist worship, but during the anti-Buddhist movement in the Meiji period (1868-1912) the Buddhist Daizen-ji Temple was dis-established, leaving the shrine as it is today; there are still some vestiges of the old temple, including the Bell Tower and Amida-do Hall. Oniyo Fire Festival is a spectacular fire festival which takes place on January 7th every year, and which is one of the three biggest fire festivals in Japan; it involves a procession of six huge Taimatsu torches, and has been designated as National Important Intangible Cultural Heritage.

Review

  • 鬼夜
    5.0 Reviewed : 2023.01.31
    西鉄大善寺駅の近くにある神社。廃仏毀釈まではお寺だったので、寺院と神社が融合したような建築が面白い。この神社が有名なのは、日本三大火祭りと言われる「鬼夜」が1月7日に行われるから。火の粉の飛び散る勇壮な祭りは一見の価値がある。
  • 高良玉垂命?

    高良大社の本宮。明治の廃仏毀釈により現在は玉垂宮となっている。ご祭神は高良玉垂命。が氏子の言い伝えでは、元は女神が祀られていたそう。本殿裏には恵比寿社、サイの神が祀られている。本殿の千木は縦削ぎ。生目社もあったが、出雲色が強い神社。年末の準備で忙しいそうだったので、御朱印は遠慮しました。
  • 福岡県の久留米市に鎮座する玉垂宮はすてきでしたよ!!
