Don't miss Atsuta Shrine when you travel to Nagoya!

🖼 Atsuta Shrine, located in Nagoya, is a shrine with a history of nearly nineteen hundred years. ❤ Atsuta Shrine is beloved by travelers because it houses the legendary sword 'Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi', which is one of the three sacred treasures of Japan that the deity 'Amaterasu Omikami' bestowed, including the mirror, jewel, and sword. It is also the place where the Sengoku period warlord Oda Nobunaga established the 'Nobunaga Wall', although only parts of the ruins remain now. 🌟 The 'Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi' sword is a mysterious existence, never displayed, but it still attracts many enthusiasts.

The Atsuta Shrine Treasure Museum houses nearly 6,000 artifacts, including important cultural properties and items of national significance in Japan. ✅ Over seventy ceremonies and festivals are held here throughout the year, and during the first few days of the New Year, the place is packed with people coming to experience the ancient culture of Japan. 📍Location: 1-1-1 Jingu, Atsuta Ward, Nagoya City, Aichi Prefecture. 💰Ticket Information: Free. 🕙Opening Hours: Open all day. The Treasure Museum is open from 9:00 to 16:30. 🚉Transportation: Take the subway Meitetsu Line, get off at Jingu Nishi, and it's just a few minutes' walk.

Spring in Nagoya, Japan | One of the three major shrines, it is said that making a wish at Atsuta Shrine is very effective Atsuta Shrine is one of the three oldest and highest-ranking shrines in Japan. First, it is as famous as Ise Shrine and Meiji Shrine. It is said that nearly 6.5 million worshipers come here every year. The Kusanagi Sword (Caoyong Sword) is enshrined here, which is the Tianyeyun Sword, one of the three major artifacts in Japan (the Gouyu of Bachiqiong, the Mirror of Yata). Legend has it that the Kusanagi Sword was taken from the tail of Yamata no Orochi by the exiled Susano, and dedicated to Amaterasu, and later as one of the three major artifacts, it was given to the descendant of Amaterasu, the Emperor, and later enshrined in Rei Tian Shrine. The Treasure Hall in Atsuta Shrine houses more than 6,000 collections from the Japanese royal family, samurai families, and folks. Most of the collections are national treasures and important cultural properties of Japan. In addition, there is a Nobunaga wall here, which is also known as "the three major earthen walls in Japan" together with the Taiko Bi of Sansanjusangendo in Kyoto and the Dailian Bi of Nishinomiya Shrine. It is said that Oda Nobunaga came here to pray before he left for the expedition. As a result, he won the battle of Ozazama and defeated Imai Yoshimoto with a disparate force, so he built a Nobunaga wall and enshrined it in Atsuta Shrine. It is said that praying here is very effective. The garden is full of greenery, and it is a little cold on a cloudy day with few people. When I walked to the shrine, it suddenly cleared up. I met the wedding procession, and I suddenly felt the oncoming spring. The beautiful scenery, the mood is graceful. I saw all kinds of people coming to spring in the garden. You can tell whether it is a tourist taking pictures or a local spring outing girl by walking in small steps~ I ate the famous Jingu miso noodles inside. The soup base and noodles are not bad, small bowls The fried pork chop is also delicious.
