City in Japan
Sakai is a port city in Japan, just south of Osaka, on Osaka Bay. It's known for the Mozu Kofun, a group of large ancient burial mounds.

In the city center, surrounded by 3 moats, the massive, keyhole-shaped Daisen Kofun is the 5th-century tomb of the Emperor Nintoku. East, the Mihara History Museum displays artifacts from the nearby Kurohime-yama Kofun. The hexagonal, 1877 Old Sakai Lighthouse overlooks the harbor.

Yamadera, Japan - Yamadera Station (2019)

Yamadera Station (山寺駅 Yamadera-eki) is a railway station in the city of Yamagata, Yamagata Prefecture, Japan, operated by East Japan Railway Company (JR East).

Yamadera Station is served by the Senzan Line, and is located 48.7 rail kilometers from the terminus of the line at Sendai Station.

Yamadera Station has a single island platform connected to the station building by an overhead walkway. The station is designed to resemble a Buddhist temple.

Yama-dera (山寺 lit. Mountain Temple), (山号 宝珠山; Sangō Hōshu-zan) is about a twenty-minute train ride (Senzan Line) northeast of Yamagata City, in Yamagata Prefecture, Japan. The temple is a nationally designated Place of Scenic Beauty and Historic Site.

The area is named after the common name of the temple of Risshaku-ji (立石寺), founded in 860 AD by the priest Ennin (円仁) (AD 793 or 794–864), who is better known in Japan by his posthumous name, Jikaku Daishi (慈覺大師). In 847 he returned to Japan from China and in 854 he became the chief priest of the Tendai sect at Enryaku-ji. Risshaku-ji was founded as a branch temple of Enryaku-ji on Mt. Hiei near Kyoto. Even today the ritual fires brought from Enryaku-ji are still burning in the main temple. It developed into the major Heian-period (794–1185) temple for rural Dewa province (now Yamagata and Akita prefectures). This main temple, the Konpon-chūdō, an important cultural asset, is said to have been built in 1356 by Shiba Kaneyori, lord of Yamagata Castle. Most of Risshaku-ji was destroyed during the local wars of the early 16th century. It was rebuilt in 1543 under the monk Enkai. By the Edo period (1600–1868) Risshaku-ji was a powerful institution possessing a fief of 1,420 koku.

The present Konpon-chūdō (Main Hall) is a Muromachi period (1333–1568) construction of beech, which is rare as a building material. The temples clinging to the steep rocky hillsides are picturesque and unusual. The thousand step climb through the dense cedar trees is worth making to the temples at the top and for the view from them. The principal image of the main temple is the Heian-period seated wooden image of Yakushi Nyorai (the Buddha Bhaisajyaguru), an important cultural asset. Yamadera holds many other important cultural assets in its treasure house, the Hihokan, including standing wooden images of Shaka Nyorai, Yakushi Nyorai and Amida Nyorai, a seated wooden image of Dengyo Daishi, a hanging wooden mandala of Buddha, and a stone monument of the Nyohō-kyō Sutra from 1144.

Yama-dera is where the well-known haiku poet Matsuo Bashō wrote his famous haiku ah this silence / sinking into the rocks / voice of cicada in 1689. A museum of Basho's writings and paintings and other related art, the Yamadera Basho Memorial Museum, is a short walk up the hill on the opposite side of the steep valley. In 1996, the Ministry of the Environment selected the cicadas of Yama-dera as one of the 100 Soundscapes of Japan.

｢続日本100名城｣を歩く旅＃08　No.105白石城　2018/08/12

2018年8月11日(土･祝)～17日(金)、JR東日本の企画乗車券｢北海道&東日本パス｣を利用して旅をした7日間の記録の第5弾です。

2018年8月12 日(日)2日め、No.105白石城(宮城県白石市)を訪れました。
3回めの訪城、#続日本100名城 スタンプラリー8城めです。

〈映像順〉
白石駅→城来路(シロクロード)→白石城東口門跡(二の丸大手二ノ門跡)→白石城歴史探訪ミュージアム→白石城大手二ノ門→天守(三階櫓)[スタンプ設置場所]→白石城厩口門跡→片倉家中武家屋敷(旧小関家)→沢端川沿い→白石駅

〈コメント〉
白石城は、3回めの訪問。初めてのときは、天守が復元してまもなくの頃だったと思います。前回は、｢駅からハイキング｣に参加。ガイド付きで城下町を歩き、白石城にも入城しました。
ミュージアムと武家屋敷は、過去2回とも入場していたので、今回入場はパス。白石城天守のみ入りました。
続日本100名城スタンプは、有料の天守内だけにあるので押印には料金が必要。スタンプラリー開始直前の2018年4月1日に入館料300円から400円に値上げされ、続100名城スタンプラリー開始に便乗した値上げではないかと、なんだかなあと思いながらの訪城となりました。
今回は時間的に無理でしたが、次回訪問する機会があれば片倉家廟所やゆかりの寺など城下町を歩いてみたいと思います。

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.

Castle Iga Ueno-Japan

Iga Ueno is most famous for ninja. The Iga school of ninjutsu (art of stealth), based in the former Ueno City, used to be one of Japan's two leading ninja schools during the feudal era (the Koka school in neighboring Shiga Prefecture was the other). Today, Iga Ueno attracts visitors with its fine ninja museum.
