今井神社

Chiba

Today, visitors can still see the original shrine that was constructed in 1631 by the Matsudaira family to enshrine the spirit of Tokugawa Ieyasu's daughter, Matsudaira Nō. The main hall features a traditional Japanese-style architecture with a sloping roof and a wooden beam structure. Inside the shrine, worshippers can see the remains of Matsudaira Nō buried in a simple stone tomb.

参拝のヒント

To make the most of your visit, try to attend during cherry blossom season ( late March to early April), as this is one of the few times when the shrine's beautiful gardens are open to the public.

文化的背景

This shrine is famous for its association with Tokugawa Ieyasu, the founder of the Tokugawa shogunate, who is still enshrined here. Visitors can also see a beautiful statue of Matsudaira Nō in front of the main hall, which symbolizes the connection between the human and divine realms.
