Shingu Kumano Shrine Nagatoko

Shingu Kumano Shrine Nagatoko

Area: Kitakata City

Recommended Season: Autumn

Built in the late Heian period, this unique 'open' hall with no walls or doors is a valuable building that conveys the architectural style of the time.
The sight of 44 thick pillars, each 45cm in diameter, arranged in perfect intervals exudes a powerful yet majestic beauty.
The 800-year-old ginkgo tree in the precincts turns vibrant colors, and when the leaves begin to fall, the ground transforms into a 'golden carpet'.
