I introduce “Minatogawa Shrine” as the last one of “Kobe sansya mairi”.
The god of this shrine is Masashige Kusunoki, a commander of samurai who had played an active part in the end of Kamakura period and Nanboku-cho period. He is well known as a man of loyalty and justice. There are his gravestone and a statue of “Mito komon” who respected Masashige very well.
The main shrine is characteristic. It is monotone-colored, and has a solemn atmosphere. Students should visit this shrine to worship for one’s success in studies. Because Masashige had three high virtue; bravery, wisdom and kindness.
If you get success for your study, you should visit this shrine.
