Ōsaki Hachimangū, 大崎八幡宮 is a Shinto shrine in Aoba-ku, Sendai, Miyagi, Japan. The main shrine building, 社殿, shaden, has been designated a National Treasure of Japan.
The construction of the present shaden was ordered by Date Masamune. Craftsmen in the service of the Toyotomi family executed the order and built the shrine from 1604 to 1607. At the start of the Meiji period the shrine was called Ōsaki Hachiman Jinja. In consideration of historical circumstances, the original name was reinstated in June 1997. On November 22, 1952, the shaden was designated as National Treasure.
Architecture
The shaden is the oldest extant ishi-no-ma-zukuri (石の間造?) structure and an example of Azuchi-Momoyama architecture. It is a single-storied structure consisting of a main sanctuary (honden) and a worship hall (haiden) which are joined via a connecting passage called ishi-no-ma. All three structures are under a single roof which is covered with shake shingles.
The honden is a 5 ken by 3 ken structure with a hip-and-gable, irimoya style roof to which a simple gabled roof of the 1 ken by 1 ken ishi-no-ma connects. The haiden is also 3 ken wide. The structure is 7 ken long at the front and 5 ken at the back where the ishi-no-ma is attached. Its roof is like that of the honden of the hip-and-gable type. On the front it has an attached triangular dormer with a decorative bargeboard of strongly concave shape, a chidori hafu (千鳥破風 lit. plover gable). The entrance is covered by a 5 ken wide step canopy with an undulating karahafu gable at eave ends (nokikarahafu).

There is an audience hall which is called as hon-maru wherepolitical decisions were made and formal ceremonies were held. There is also the statue of the legendary Masamune on horseback.

Scenes from the Aoba Festival of Sendai, Japan
This is old, old footage taken before I had a video camera. I shot these scenes with a digital photocamera so they're very low-res. So watch it in HQ.
Anyway, these are some scenes from the first day of the Aoba Festival in Sendai which is several hundred miles north of Tokyo in the Tohoku region.
The festival celebrates the founder of the city - Date Masamune who was a warlord from the 16th-17th Century.
Samurai daimyō ritual service in Sendai
Lord and founder of Sendai Date Masamune was a powerful daimyō in northern Japan in the time of swords and samurai. A top vassal of Shōgun Tokugawa, he lived and ruled 400 years ago.
That part of Japan's history has now passed, but still his decendants and those of his warriors gather in ceremony at Masamune's tomb (Zuihōden) at the coming of the new year.
