Shrine
This is a shinto shrine is located in Suga, Daito Town, Unnan City. It is called Nihonhatsunomiya as it originates from Sugamiya which was made after Susanoo-no-mikoto defeated Yamata-no-Orochi. It is also said to be “the birthplace of waka (a type of Japanese poem)” as Susanoo-no-mikoto read the oldest Waka in Japan. The Waka goes “I am trying to build a place in Izumo to take a new wife, and the multifold fences look like overlapping clouds”. On the path leading to the shrine, there are 60 stone poem monuments built.

    念願だった須賀神社に、ようやくお参り出来ました。山の斜面にある神社で、あまり見ない感じの作りです。静かで力強く、でも清らかで明るい感じがしました。同時に奥社もお参りしなければ、片参りになってしまうとのことで、このあと奥社にも行きました。
