Nice big shopping 🛍 mall . I don’t like the parking thing they only provide 1 hour free parking and if you shop between 1¥ to ¥4000 then it will be + 1 hour free so total 2 hours only and if you shop ¥4000 above it will be +2 hours free so total 3 hours free parking only . I think they should provide 3 hours free parking at least. We went here on 14th august 2021 Saturday it was really crowded and the parking was like full . Toilet 🚽 is available and clean. Wheelchair ♿️ persons are ok 👌. Escalators and elevators 🛗 are available. Shopping 🛍 mall starts from 4th floor ~ 1st floor. You can find zara also . Credit card 💳 and cash both ok 👌. Staff are polite.

It's big enough but really lacks something..quite boring compared to the aeon malls. Food court and restaurant area are a bit sparse. Hopefully it will add more variety of stores in the future. Seems geared towards housewives with lots of kids shops and clothing but no electronics or hobby style stores for the husbands!

Great places

Decent facilities and lots of shops. Baby feeding rooms could do with some improvement. Elevators are slow.

Big place, some parts recently refurbished. Clean, plentiful parking. Great for a day out on a cold/hot/wet day.

They have a plus sized store that is not ridiculously expensive. Every other store I've gone to has been way too much money. While this place is not cheap it's one of the cheapest and the quality is good too.

Compare with Tennoji Q’s mall this one was less crowded. Children playing area was not bad either .

We accidentally took the train here so took a short walk to the castle but did not tour it. Pleasant walk. I’m sure it’s more interesting if you take the time to visit. Here are just a few outside pics

very clean very nice arranged attractions. Service staffs are very friendly and very informative. We have good time to take the elevator to the top floor and slowly walked down each floor has different features. We watched the video in a theater (it has English subtitles). One can try ninja uniform and feel the strike of a sword and that was fun. Washroom is very clean and nice!

Great visit, entry was quite reasonable. There were a few interactive exhibits that the kids and myself enjoyed. On a side note there is the Amagasaki Piggy Bank museum nearby, free entry and fantastic displays, also the staff are really friendly 👍🏼👍🏼👌🏻

It was so much fun! 😆 You could dress up as a ninja, a princess, wear a Kamishimo helmet, take photos, and even try out quiz games with swords and guns. It was a wonderful experience that anyone could enjoy.

Amagasaki Castle is very to visit. It is about a 5-6 minute walk from the Hanshin Amagasaki train station. Just exit the building to the south (ocean side), turn left (east), walk parallel to the train tracks, cross over the river and you basically are there. The outside of the castle is fantastic, the inside has been remodeled and updated. While it is very clean and well organized on the inside, you will see little on the original architecture. After entering and paying a 500 yen adult fee you take the elevator to the 5th floor for an excellent view of the surrounding city. You then walk down to the 4th floor and view some paintings of other castles. On 3 you get a change to dress up trying on ancient clothes and armor. The 2nd floor is very nice as there is a special room showing a virtual reality view of the entire original castle complex. Very impressive. On the 1st floor is some historical information before exiting the building.

This castle was restored in 2018. There is an elevator inside.

It is a small castle. It was rebuilt in March 2019. It is made of concrete, but has some wood inside. You cannot compare it with the big castles. However, it is a nice place to spend an hour. There are some things for kids inside. They can dress up, touch a replica gun, and play some games. The grounds are small but clean. It is a nice place to sit and read a book. If you are in the area, it is worth a visit. However, if you are in Japan for a short time, there are bigger and better things to do.

It was nice place for fishing. They have got all rental services there for fishing and you can buy it to if you like to. There is lot's of vending machine for drinks and ramen as well. But i recommend you to get some food because less choice and there isn't any convinience store or restaurant nearby. If you're going there then you can contact them and they will send you micro bus for pick up and drop up for free up to nearby station.

It's a lovely place ☺️ well organized

nice place I always go fishing there they have bb sets

Visited in May, mostly small fish and a couple of Aji. Great place to spend a sunny afternoon alone or with kids.

We catch fish every time we visit here. Some stingrays too ☹️

I could go there by foot from rail way station. There were many families and children. It is safe and popular place. If you want to enter the place, you have to pay. But don't worry. There are many free fishing point near.

Good place for fishing.

Lovely little shrine with an enormous torii gate! The staff were very friendly, one had spent some time in Australia and spoke English well. Plus, the three goshuin I got were adorable!

Very close to Hanshin railway Amagasaki station. Big "鳥居" ( TORII. Entrance to the shrine). Shrine itself is a small. "EBISU" is the God of business. If you come to Amagasaki, I recommend you to visit here.

Friendly environment in a convenient location. The priest shows to have cultural awareness. She is very competent as well as down to the earth. It is worth to visit if you want to understand Japanese culture deeper.

I visit monthly for the new goshuin design.

Good view for Kowloon

(Translated by Google) [Amagasaki Ebisu Shrine] Amagasaki Ebisu Shrine is a historic shrine affectionately known as "Ebessan," the god of prosperous business. The shrine is particularly popular during the Toka Ebisu Festival in January, attracting many visitors and creating a lively atmosphere. The grounds are clean and well-maintained, and you can sense how much the locals cherish them. The shrine is small yet warm, making it the perfect place to stop by for your first visit of the year or while out for a stroll. There is a wide selection of offerings, including lucky bamboo and rakes, and you can also enjoy amulets and fortune-telling slips. [Amagasaki Ebisu Shrine] 3-82 Kanda Nakadori, Amagasaki City, Hyogo Prefecture 660-0884 (Original) 【尼崎えびす神社】 尼崎えびす神社は、商売繁盛の神様「えべっさん」で親しまれる歴史ある神社。 特に毎年1月の十日えびす祭では多くの参拝客でにぎわい、活気あふれる雰囲気が魅力です。 境内は清潔で整備されており、地元の人々に大切にされている様子が感じられます。 こぢんまりとしながらも温かみがあり、初詣や散歩がてら立ち寄るのにもぴったり。福笹や熊手などの授与品も豊富で、お守りやおみくじも楽しめます。 【尼崎えびす神社】 〒660-0884 兵庫県尼崎市神田中通３丁目８２

(Translated by Google) There are shrines dedicated to Ebisu throughout Japan, but this one is particularly close to the station, with its grounds stretching along the elevated train tracks. Because it's so close to the station, no directions are needed. Simply exit the north exit and walk along the tracks toward Kobe. The eastern half of the grounds is Kanda Park, and while the entire area is technically within the grounds, a large red torii gate stands there, visible from the window of the Hanshin train on the mountain side. The closest approach to the main shrine is from the arcade side of Ichibangai (Amagasaki Central Shopping Street), turn south at the corner of Daiso, and enter via the side path directly in front. If you're driving, exit the Hanshin Expressway at either the Amagasaki East or West interchange and head toward Hanshin Amagasaki Station. It's a short drive from either the Meishin Expressway or the JR Tokaido Line's Amagasaki Station. To enter the shrine grounds, enter Kanda Park, pass through the large red torii gate, and go straight ahead. The main shrine is located slightly diagonally to the right. The gift shop is to the left of the main shrine. When it's busy, there's no one at the counter, so if you ring the doorbell, someone will come right out and sell you something. As the god of commerce, they offer a full range of gifts, primarily for financial luck (there are two types), including miniature character items, Sarutahiko, Ebisu, and dream charms. The shrine grounds are home to a variety of animal statues, including horses, frogs, rabbits, an octopus (on the Kanda Park side), Okonkon-sama, the three monkeys, a snake, and even Ninomiya Kinjiro, making it a fun shrine for kids. However, on the main approach, there's a shrine called Hon-Ebisu Kotoshironushi Shrine (this is Yae Kotoshironushi-no-Okami, the main deity). The shrine building faces east with its back to almost due west, creating a beautiful silhouette in the setting sun. There are also many branch shrines built in close proximity, including Tenjin-sama, Kanayamahiko-sama, Homusubi-sama, and Shiogama-sama. The current chief priest, a famous, multi-bilingual woman with a shining hairpin and a well-fitting forehead protector, is a dynamic person who can be met in the mornings and evenings without being confined to the shrine. There were no "Beautiful Heart Charms" at the gift shop, so please make sure to replenish your stock. (Original) 日本全国いろんなところにえびすさまを祀る神社はありますけど、ここはその中でも駅から至近なお社で、高架線路に沿うように境内が広がる神社です。駅近なので、道案内は不要。ただ,北口降りて線路に沿って神戸方へ歩いて行くだけで着きます。境内の東側半分が神田公園になっていまして、まぁ、全部が看做し境内なんだろうけど、大きな赤い鳥居が建ってまして、阪神電車の山側車窓からも見えます。参道的には一番街(尼崎中央商店街)のアーケード側からダイソーのカドを南へ曲がると正面にある脇参道から入る方が本殿には最寄りです。クルマで参る方は、阪神高速の尼崎東か西のICを降りて、どちらからも阪神尼崎駅目指して走ってすぐです。名神高速やJR東海道線の尼崎駅からは距離があります。境内は、神田公園に入って、赤い大鳥居をくぐってまっすぐ進んだところから入り、やや右斜め前に進んだところに本殿があります。本殿向かって左手に授与所。ヒマな時は誰も窓口に居ないので、ピンポンで呼ぶとすぐに出てきて売ってくれます。 商いの神さまなので、金運(2種類ある)を中心に願意は一通り揃っていて、キャラものミニのほか、猿田彦さんや、えべっさん、夢守りまでいろいろ扱っています。境内には実にいろんな動物像が配置されていて、馬・カエル・ウサギ・タコ(神田公園側)・おこんこんさま・三猿・ヘビ・二宮金次郎さんまで、ちびっこには楽しい神社です。 ただ、正面参道には、本戎事代主神社と社号があり(これが八重事代主大神で主祭神です)、社殿はほぼ真西を背にして東面して建ち、西日にシルエットの美しい建ち位置になっています。摂末社も所狭しと建てられていて、天神さま、金山彦さま、火産霊(ほむすび)さま、塩釜さまなど、並び建っています。 現在のマルチバイリンガルの釵子輝く女性宮司さまは有名で、額当のフィットする行動派の方でして、社殿に籠ることなく、朝晩境内でお会いすることができます。授与所に「美心の御守」ありませんでしたから、在庫補充しといてください。

I love the fact it actually opens early - 6:30am - so you can buy bread for breakfast. Located about 400m east of the Sumiyoshi River, down near the sea. It's a little hard to find so you need to keep your eyes peeled as it doesn't look like a bakery. The small shop is set back behind a small car parking area. The bread smelly and tasted good. It caters for Japanese tastes for sure - sweet red bean paste bread, cream bread, etc - but if you like Japanese style bread, this will be a great place to go.

Its a nice park. Has many traditional food stalls up during festivals. Close to many shops and restaurants.

(Translated by Google) This park is beautiful with cherry blossoms in the spring and autumn leaves in the fall. Paid parking available. There are railroad crossings, crosswalks, and roads within the park, making it ideal for biking and walking. Although the play equipment is old, there are many locomotives, ships, etc. There are many chairs and lawns, so you can take a break at the cafe or eat your lunch slowly. We could play in the pond, and there were small shrimp and snails, and the water in the pond was clear and there were ducks and carp. There was a Japanese-style toilet near the pond, but it was smelly, but you could use it. The well-kept flower beds were full of flowers and looked very beautiful. There is a 7-Eleven near the park, which is very convenient. (Original) 春は桜、秋は紅葉がとても綺麗な公園です。 有料駐車場あり。公園内に踏切、横断歩道、道路があり、自転車で走ったり、ウォーキングに最適です。遊具は古いですが機関車や船等たくさんあります。椅子や芝生も多いので、カフェ休憩したり、お弁当もゆっくり食べれます。池でも遊べて小さなエビやタニシがいて、鴨や鯉がいる池は水が澄んでいました。池の近くに和式トイレがあり臭かったですが、使用出来ます。手入れされた花壇もたくさんお花が咲いていてとても綺麗でした。公園の近くにセブンイレブンがあり大変便利です。

Good

(Translated by Google) The safety park is spacious and perfect for practicing cycling! Also, in the spring, the cherry blossoms are in full bloom. There's a parking fee, but it's worth it because the kids have so much fun! 🫶 (Original) 安全公園広いし、自転車の練習には最適！ また、春になると桜が満開に。 駐車場代がかかるけど、こどもが楽しんでくれるからプライレス！🫶

(Translated by Google) I came here by bicycle, panting and sulking. Today is the Muko Festival. Inside the park, there are ring toss events, cotton candy making experiences, food and drink stalls, and even a Pizza-La food truck. There is a show going on in the central plaza, and a magic show was going on at the time. After that, a children's dance show will be performed. Plus, a monster mascot livened up the atmosphere. What's going on? Even fire engines and garbage trucks are out. For us commoners, there is nothing more exciting than being able to watch for free. It's such a blessing. (Original) おっちらこっちら　ヒーハー言いながら…チャリでやって来ました。今日は武庫まつり開催です。園内では、輪投げにわた菓子作り体験、飲食の屋台はもちろん、なんと、ピザーラの屋台カーまでもが来てました。中央広場ではショウが行われ、ちょうど、マジックショウをやってる最中でした。この後、子供達のダンスショウが披露されるとか。さらに着ぐるみの怪獣が場を盛り上げてくれます。何なん、消防車やゴミ収集車までが出動中。儂ら平民にはタダで見物できる事ほど嬉しい事ありまへん。ありがたい事ってす。

(Translated by Google) It's a big park. There's a nice garden for taking photos, so I was able to practice my photography. (Original) 大きな公園ですね。写真撮影にいい感じの庭があり写真の練習ができました。

Just a great place to visit if you want to shop, eat and just take the day slow. You can either do it on your own, with family or friends. I recommend you take a day to look around there is so much to see.

Very nice gym, big and with enough equipment to practice fitness. The heaviest dumbbell are 30kg, i would like to have at least until 40kg. Also it would be great if we have a bench or machine for low chest press.

The locals all know that the fishmonger and greengrocers on the ground floor are great value and fresh so they’re always busy, which is exactly what you want from a produce store to be honest. The shoe repair guys are also really friendly and quick on the other side. The tofu shop is great quality, there’s a huge daiso on the 7th floor, what more do you need if you’re living locally?

This place has lots of shops for various needs. There are two or three grocery shops lots of dress shops like GU Uniqlo etc. Lots of restaurants and snack shops on the ground floor. Baskin Robbins KFC and MCD is also there

One of the biggest supermarket in Amagasaki. Fishes, Meats and Vegetables on the ground floor are great value.

Great place to exercise,but if you have tattoo,they dont let you exercice or pool.

Very nice place .... relax... enjoy.. specially world (B) restaurant

(Translated by Google) I went to see the rose park. I went by bike, but since the place is not facing a major road, I had to wander around the alleys to get there. I went there on a Saturday afternoon, but was there a youth baseball practice at the field next door? It was a busy place, but Perhaps by chance, there was no one else in the rose garden, so I was able to take my time to look around. The roses are in full bloom and you can smell the fragrant scent of roses even when wearing a mask. I heard a little bird singing from inside the bushes. According to the rose map published by the Amagasaki City Green Park Association, there are approximately 1,000 roses of 70 varieties. I was able to see some rare varieties of roses that were not found in other parks. There are benches, but there is no shade on sunny days, so I think it would be better to bring a parasol or a hat. It's about a 15 minute walk from the station and a 10 minute walk from the bus stop, so you have to walk a little. Motorcycles and bicycles can be parked, but there is no parking lot. (Original) バラ公園を見に伺いました。 バイクで行ったのですが大きな道路に面してない場所なので路地をうろうろして辿り着くのに手間取ってしまいました。 土曜の午後に行ったのですがお隣のグランドでは少年野球の練習？をされてて賑わっていましたが、 バラ園はたまたまだったのか他には誰もおられずゆっくり拝見する事ができました。 満開でマスクをしていてもバラの芳しい香りが漂ってきます。 茂みの中から小鳥の声が聞こえてきました。尼崎市緑化公園協会の発行する薔薇マップによると70品種、約1000本のバラがあるそうです。 よその公園には無かった品種もあり珍しいバラも見れました。 ベンチはありますが天気の良い日中は日陰がないので日傘か帽子があった方が良いかと思います。 駅から徒歩約15分、バス停からも徒歩約10分、少し歩かねばなりません。 バイクや自転車は停めれますが駐車場はありません。

(Translated by Google) It's a park with lots of plants and octopus play equipment that stands out. Although it is a unique piece of play equipment, the octopus slide is made with quite an angle, so it may not be suitable for small children. I think the swings are also made of wood, so it's a spot that looks pretty plain. (Original) 草木もたくさんある、タコの遊具が一際目立つ公園です。 独特な遊具ですが、タコの滑り台はかなり角度のある作りなので小さい子供向けではないかもです。 ブランコも木製のものがあったり地味に結構映えるスポットだと思います。

(Translated by Google) May 21 I heard that the roses were beautiful so I visited. I entered the park from the north side, so I wondered if there were really roses there, so I headed south and found it. There were more books than I expected. There are few people around the rose area, so I recommend it. There is no parking lot, but there is a coin parking lot nearby. (Original) 21年5月 薔薇が綺麗だと聞いて訪問。公園の北側から入ったので、“ほんとに薔薇あるの？”と思いながら南へ行くと見つかりました。思った以上に本数もあった。人も薔薇の辺りは少なくてオススメ。駐車場はありませんが近くにコイン駐車場があります。

(Translated by Google) There is a rose garden in the park, and the roses bloom beautifully around May. There is a large octopus play equipment, and the locals call it the octopus park. Recently, the octopus was boiled bright red (⁉) Unfortunately, there is no play equipment where you can do pull-ups. (Original) バラ園が公園内にあって、５月頃にはバラが綺麗に咲きます。 大きなタコの遊具があり地元ではタコ公園と呼ばれています。 最近そのタコが真っ赤に茹で上がりました(⁉) 残念ながら、懸垂のできる遊具がありません。

(Translated by Google) Nowadays, it is a park with beautiful greenery, and colorful flowers bloom depending on the season, including cherry blossoms and azaleas in the spring.There is also a rose park nearby, so you can enjoy it. There is also play equipment, and families and health-conscious customers can enjoy walking and other activities. (Original) 今は緑が綺麗な公園で、季節によって色とりどりの花が咲き、春は桜〜ツツジなど、また近くにバラ公園もあり、楽しめます。 遊具などもあり、家族連れや健康を意識したお取り寄りの方もウォーキングなどをしています。

(Translated by Google) It is a large park with a rose garden, playground equipment, and a baseball field. There was a sleeping cat in the rose garden, and it probably didn't run away when I approached it, probably because it was friendly to people. (Original) バラ園と遊具と球場がある広い公園です。 バラ園には寝ている猫が居て、人馴れしているのか近づいても逃げませんでした。

(Translated by Google) It's a very large park. There is an octopus play equipment, as well as a large sandbox and other play equipment that even small children can play with. There is a field a little further down the road, and although the general public is not allowed to enter there, the youth baseball team often practices there. I also have a watch, which is helpful. Many elementary school students are playing with the octopus toy. Other small play equipment is played with small play equipment. Many elementary school students from nearby Ushio Elementary School and Shimosakabe Elementary School are playing here. The octopus play equipment at Shioe Park is such a symbol that elementary school students call it "Octopus Park." From after 3:00 to around 6:00, there are many elementary school students. It's a park that's so fun you can stay there for a long time, so if you live nearby, you'll definitely want to go there. (Original) とても広い公園です。タコの遊具があり、他には、大きな砂場や小さな子供でも遊べる遊具があります。少し行ったところには、グラウンドがあり、そこには一般の人は入れませんが、少年野球チームがよく練習を行っています。時計もあるので助かります。 タコの遊具は小学生の多くが遊んでいます。その他の小さな遊具は小さな遊具で遊んでいます。 近隣の潮小、下坂部小の小学生が多く遊んでいます。 小学生たちは潮江公園のことを「タコ公園」と呼んでいるほど、潮江公園のタコの遊具はシンボルです。 3時過ぎから、6時ごろまでは、小学生がとても多い時間帯です。近くに住んでいる人は是非行ってほしいほどずっといても楽しい公園です。

(Translated by Google) This is a Nichiren sect temple whose principal image is Mt. Taiyo, Daimoku Hoto, Taho Nyorai, and Shaka Nyorai. It started as Hoka-ji Temple, which was built by Eizonin Nichion on the land of Nanatsumatsu in 1350, and later moved to Furotsuji-cho, Tatsumi, and Ichiba, and moved to its current location in 1617 when Amagasaki Castle was built. The temple was renamed to its current name, Choen-ji Temple. The main hall was built in 1623, and the Tahoto pagoda was built in 1607, both of which are designated important cultural properties of the country. The bell tower (built in 1627), reception hall (built in 1611), and Kuri (built in 1668) are designated tangible cultural properties of Hyogo Prefecture. Visited the shrine on 24/02/29. As I visited this shrine, I thought that it was different from others in that the principal image was not a Buddhist statue, but something other than a Buddhist statue. Tahoto was beautiful.

(Translated by Google) I visited the day before the November performance of "Kanadehon Chushingura" at the National Bunraku Theater. Cockscombs were blooming like ``There are 145 cockscombs (by Shiki),'' and a single Cosmos cosmos flower was blooming on the edge of the pond. In front of the Chikamatsu Memorial Hall, there is a statue of Chikamatsu Monzaemon. There is also one monument with a poem by Monzaemon Chikamatsu and one with a poem by Sofu Nakajima. Nakajima Sofu seems to be a haiku poet who was awarded the Amagasaki City Cultural Merit Medal in 1971. I found it a must-see place for Chikamatsu fans. November 5, 2024 ★What is this?

(Translated by Google) A park with a bronze statue of Chikamatsu Monzaemon. The park has lots of greenery and walking trails, so it's a great place for a stroll. However, depending on the season, there can be a lot of insects, so insect repellent spray is a must. If you go at night, you'll often see young people from the neighborhood occupying the benches and staring at people entering the park. As it's in a place that's difficult to see from the main road, it's hard to say the park is very safe at night. (Original) 近松門左衛門の銅像のある公園。 園内は緑も多くウォーキングコースもあってお散歩には良いかと。 ただ季節によっては本当に虫が多いです。虫除けスプレーは必須かと。 夜に行くと度々近隣の若い子がベンチを占領して公園に入る人をジロジロ見てきたりもします。 メイン道路から見え難い場所にあることも併せて夜間はあまり治安が良いとは言い難い公園です。

(Translated by Google) It is well-maintained as a city park, with trees such as cherry blossoms and zelkova that reflect the seasons, and walking paths surrounding a pond. A place for local residents to relax. Kosai-ji Temple, which is adjacent to the park, is a nationally designated historic site as the grave of Chikamatsu Monzaemon.

(Translated by Google) I went during this year's plum season. Gray herons used to come often, but now that the water in the pond has been drained, they no longer come. I went to see the cherry blossoms a few days ago, and both the Yoshino cherry tree and the weeping cherry tree were in full bloom. (Original) 今年の梅のシーズンに行きました。 アオサギがよく来ていましたが、池の水を抜いているので来なくなりました。 桜は数日前に行きましたが、ソメイヨシノ、枝垂れ桜とも満開でした。

(Translated by Google) It's nice to find a fairly spacious spot in a residential area of ​​Amagasaki where you can really feel nature. You can enjoy the trees, flowers, and pond. It's not overly large, so I recommend just taking a stroll around the area. It seems like it would be good for both body and mind. I took one star off because the vending machines didn't seem to be working... This was about six months ago, but all the vending machines were dead... (Maybe they weren't even turned on?) That said, there are two convenience stores nearby, as well as a takoyaki shop, bakery, coffee shop, and soba restaurant, so it's still convenient. It's been hot lately, but once the temperature cools down a bit, I'd like to come back and bask in the sun while enjoying a light snack. (Original) 尼崎の住宅街に、けっこう広々と自然が感じられるスポットがあって助かっています。 木や花、池が楽しめます。めちゃくちゃ広すぎるとかでもないので、ぶらっと一周歩くとかオススメです。 心身によさそう。 星を１つ減らしたのは、自動販売機が稼働していなかったようであったこと…。 半年ほど前の話ではありますが、自動販売機が全滅状態でした…。 (電源自体入ってなかった？) といっても、近くにコンビニ２件、たこ焼き屋さんやパン屋さん、喫茶店やお蕎麦屋さんもあるので普通に便利です。 最近暑いですが、もうちょっと気温が落ち着いたら、何か軽く食べながらひなたぼっこに来訪したいです。

(Translated by Google) This park has remained unchanged for about 40 years since I was an elementary school student. There is a pond, but no fish. (Sometimes there are a few dragonfly nymphs.) However, wild birds such as herons sometimes stand in the pond, thinking there are fish there. There are some paths that are difficult to walk on, but I think the park is well maintained. (Original) 小学生の頃から約40年変わらない姿の公園です。 池がありますが、魚などはいません。（ヤゴが少しいることがある） でも、時たま野鳥のサギなどが魚がいると思って池で立っていますね。 歩きにくい道はあるけど、綺麗に整備されている方だと思います。

(Translated by Google) 2022.4.3 The cherry blossoms are almost in full bloom and beautiful. There are cherry blossom trees clustered at the back of the park. The water in the pond had been drained, but there was one gray heron. (Original) 2022.4.3 桜ほぼ満開で綺麗です。 公園奥にかたまって桜の木があります。 池の水は抜かれていましたが、アオサギが一羽いました。

Great theater!

(Translated by Google) I always use it in the Brillante Piano Circle. It's a great hall with a nice piano and a high ceiling. (Original) いつもブリランテピアノサークルで使わせていただいております。ピアノも良くて天井も高く、素晴らしいホールです

(Translated by Google) I visited here to listen to a piano competition. I wasn't able to see the large hall, but there was a coffee shop inside, so it looked like a nice place to relax. The small hall can accommodate about 20 to 30 people. The performance was filled with a grand piano. (Original) ピアノコンペティションを聴きにここにお邪魔した。大ホールは見学できなかったが、中に喫茶店が併設されていてくつろげそうだった。小ホールは収容数が20〜30人程度。演奏はグランドピアノを置いていっぱいといった印象。

I also had the opportunity to take a behind-the-scenes tour of the building during a class called ``Art Planning Seminar'' at Osaka University Graduate School.

(Translated by Google) I think it's an appropriate size for a box that holds small to medium-sized performances. It was within walking distance from the station, and there was a parking lot on the south side. I got the impression that the facility was supportive of theater. The audience seats also have different heights, making it easy to see the stage. (Original) 中小規模の公演を行なうハコとしては適度なサイズなのではないでしょうか。駅からも徒歩圏ですし、南側に駐車場もありました。施設としても演劇に協力的なところのような印象を受けました。客席も高低差がありステージが見やすいです。

(Translated by Google) It was close to the station and I could get there by straight road. Although it is an older theater, the seats were comfortable, the restrooms were clean, and the staff was very helpful. (Original) 駅から近く一本道で来れました 年季の入った劇場ですが座席は座り心地もよくお手洗いも綺麗でスタッフの方の対応も素敵でした

(Translated by Google) This is a Jodoji temple. As soon as you enter, there is a statue of Seishimaru on your right. It's a beautiful temple. The goshuin stamp is written down. (Original) 浄土寺の寺院です。入ってすぐ右手に勢至丸様の像があります。きれいな寺院です。 御朱印は書き置きです。

(Translated by Google) A temple of the Jodo sect, whose mountain name is Yakuo-zan, the temple name is Sekizen-in, and the principal image is Amida Nyorai. It was opened in 1490 by Enyo Shonin in the land of Omotsu, and was moved to its current location in 1617 when Amagasaki Castle was built. As you enter the main gate, you will see the imposing main hall towering over the narrow precincts, and next to it is the Mimi Jizo statue, which was built in 1713. It was renovated in 1991, retaining the image of the old main hall when Jakuyo Shonin revived the temple in 1681. Additionally, there was a text hanging over the Sanmon Gate that read ``An Ordinary Person's Heart,'' which was said to have been received from Sanbutsuji Temple, which is famous for its Nageire Hall, and I read it for a while in front of the Sanmon Gate. I visited the temple on 24/02/29 when I made a pilgrimage to the temple town of Amagasaki. It was a quiet temple. (Original) 薬王山を山号、積善院を院号、ご本尊を阿弥陀如来とする浄土宗のお寺。 1490年、円誉上人により大物の地に開かれ、1617年の尼崎築城のおり、現在地に移された。山門を入ると、堂々とした本堂が境内狭しと聳え、その脇には1713年建立の耳地蔵さんが祀られていた。1681年に寂誉上人が中興した時の旧本堂のイメージを残して1991年に改築されたものだそうだ。 また、山門には投入堂で有名な三仏寺から頂いたという"凡夫のこころ"という文章がかかっており、山門前でしばらく読ませていただいた。 24/02/29、尼崎の寺町を巡礼した時にお詣りした。静かなお寺だった。

(Translated by Google) It was a very beautiful temple. (Original) とても綺麗なお寺さんでした。

(Translated by Google) A Jodo sect temple. An old-fashioned look. (Original) 浄土宗のお寺。 昔ながらのたたずまい。

(Translated by Google) Susano Shrine was quite a magnificent shrine. The most distinctive feature was the offering box shaped like an abacus. Perhaps because of this, I gave a generous donation! It was an evening in bad weather (rain), so there was no one there and I was able to pray at my leisure. Next door was Kinrenji Temple, with its striking crimson color. Why not visit both? (Original) 「すさのお神社」は、なかなか立派な神社でした。 なんと言っても賽銭箱が「そろばん」なのが特徴的です。そのためか、賽銭も奮発しました！ 悪天候(雨)の夕方だったので人も居らず、ゆっくりお参りさせていただきました。 お隣は紅が映える「金蓮寺でした。一緒にお参りしては如何でしょうか。

(Translated by Google) I happened to visit on a festival day. Apparently, several shrines in Amagasaki hold festivals on the second Saturday of October (perhaps because there are so many Susanoo shrines, the festivals overlap?). Because the shrine office has limited opening hours, Sunday afternoons are bustling with Nintama fans on their pilgrimage. Pre-written goshuin stamps are also available, so if it's crowded, I recommend getting one if you're not particularly particular about your goshuin stamp book. Normally, when the shrine office is open, you can enter the worship hall to see the giant Bunjiro ema and abacus donated by Amako Sobei up close, but due to the festival, we were closed on this day. Instead, the door to the main hall, which is usually closed, was open, making for a rare sight. There's an elderly woman in the shrine office who distributes amulets and accepts goshuin stamps, and I'm grateful for her kind hospitality. (Original) たまたま伺ったら祭礼の日に当たりました。尼崎内の複数の神社で10月第二土日に祭礼があるようです(素戔嗚神社が沢山あるから重なるのでしょうか？) 社務所が開く日時に制限がある為、日曜の午後は聖地巡礼の忍たまファンで賑わっています。 御朱印は書き置きもありますので、混雑している時等は御朱印帳への強いこだわりがなければ書き置きを頂くと良いと思います。 普段は社務所が開いている時間は拝殿内に入って尼子騒兵衛先生奉納の巨大文次郎絵馬や算盤等を間近に見ることが出来ますが、この日は祭礼の為入れず。その代わり普段は締まっている本殿へ繋がる扉が開かれており、珍しい光景に出会えました。 社務所でお守りの頒布や御朱印の受付をされる高齢の女性がいらっしゃるのですが、いつも優しく対応してくださり感謝です。

(Translated by Google) I visited the temple during a walk. There is a large camphor tree in the precincts. There is ginkgo biloba and it has a sacred feeling. I will. The enshrined deity is Sujinson (Mikoto Susanou). The offering box is an abacus ball style. I asked for good luck. I visited it quite a while ago. Since then, the shrine has been renovated. I'm here. From Jr Amagasaki, About 8 minutes walk north (Original) 散歩の途中にお詣りしました。 境内には、大きなクスノキと イチョウがあり、神聖な感じが します。 御祭神は素盞嗚尊 (すさのうのみこと)です。 お賽銭箱は、そろばん玉風 開運招福をお願いしました。 かなり昔にお詣りしたのですが その時以降に社殿が改修されて います。 Jr尼崎から、 北に徒歩8分くらいです

(Translated by Google) It became beautiful. It is crowded with night shops in the summer, festivals in the fall, and New Year's visits during the year-end and New Year holidays. There is a night stall on Sannotsuku day from June. Fried chicken, potatoes, shrimp, and shaved ice are all children's favorite foods. There is a festival in autumn, where mikoshi are prepared in each district of the Shioe area and paraded through the town. Children of elementary school age and younger ride the mikoshi and advance while beating the drums. I can feel the pleasant autumn breeze. (Original) 綺麗になりました。夏は夜店、秋はお祭り、年末年始の初詣て賑わいを見せています。6月から三ノつく日には夜店があります。唐揚げ、ポテト、えびせん、カキ氷に子供の好物ばかりです。 秋にはお祭りがあり、潮江地域の各地区で神輿を準備して、町内を練り歩きます。小学校以下の子供が神輿に乗り、太鼓を叩きながら進みます。心地よい秋風を感じます。

(Translated by Google) This is a local shrine for Downtown. It also has the Tamagaki fence of Takasu-san, who is said to be the third member of Downtown. There seems to be a parking lot along the Nagasu Line. There is also a paid parking lot in a multi-storey car park nearby. It's a small shrine, so there may not be much to see, but I think it's a nice shrine. When I went, the shrine office was closed, so I'd like to visit again. (Original) ダウンタウンの地元の神社です。3人目のダウンタウンとも言われる高須さんの玉垣もあります。駐車場が長洲線沿いにあるようです。すぐ近くにも立体駐車場のコインパーキングもあります。 こじんまりした神社ですので、見どころは少ないかもしれませんが良い神社だと思います。私が行った時は社務所が閉まっていましたので、また訪問してみたいです。

(Translated by Google) It's a very beautiful shrine. The offering box is an abacus, which is rare. There is a door on the right side of the shrine and you can enter it. There is a very large sacred tree (campus). A set of two goshuin stamps costs 600 yen. (Original) とても綺麗な神社です。 お賽銭箱がそろばんになっており珍しいです。 拝殿の右側にドアがあり中に入れます。 すごく大きな御神木(楠)があります。 御朱印は２つセットで６００円です。

(Translated by Google) I visited the day before the November performance of "Kanadehon Chushingura" at the National Bunraku Theater. Cockscombs were blooming like ``There are 145 cockscombs (by Shiki),'' and a single Cosmos cosmos flower was blooming on the edge of the pond. In front of the Chikamatsu Memorial Hall, there is a statue of Chikamatsu Monzaemon. There is also one monument with a poem by Monzaemon Chikamatsu and one with a poem by Sofu Nakajima. Nakajima Sofu seems to be a haiku poet who was awarded the Amagasaki City Cultural Merit Medal in 1971. I found it a must-see place for Chikamatsu fans. November 5, 2024 ★What is this?

(Translated by Google) A park with a bronze statue of Chikamatsu Monzaemon. The park has lots of greenery and walking trails, so it's a great place for a stroll. However, depending on the season, there can be a lot of insects, so insect repellent spray is a must. If you go at night, you'll often see young people from the neighborhood occupying the benches and staring at people entering the park. As it's in a place that's difficult to see from the main road, it's hard to say the park is very safe at night. (Original) 近松門左衛門の銅像のある公園。 園内は緑も多くウォーキングコースもあってお散歩には良いかと。 ただ季節によっては本当に虫が多いです。虫除けスプレーは必須かと。 夜に行くと度々近隣の若い子がベンチを占領して公園に入る人をジロジロ見てきたりもします。 メイン道路から見え難い場所にあることも併せて夜間はあまり治安が良いとは言い難い公園です。

(Translated by Google) It is well-maintained as a city park, with trees such as cherry blossoms and zelkova that reflect the seasons, and walking paths surrounding a pond. A place for local residents to relax. Kosai-ji Temple, which is adjacent to the park, is a nationally designated historic site as the grave of Chikamatsu Monzaemon. (Original) 桜やケヤキなど四季を感じる木々や池を囲む散策路など、都市公園としてよく整備されている。近隣住民の憩いの場。公園に隣接する広済寺は近松門左衛門の墓所として国指定史跡となっている。

(Translated by Google) I went during this year's plum season. Gray herons used to come often, but now that the water in the pond has been drained, they no longer come. I went to see the cherry blossoms a few days ago, and both the Yoshino cherry tree and the weeping cherry tree were in full bloom. (Original) 今年の梅のシーズンに行きました。 アオサギがよく来ていましたが、池の水を抜いているので来なくなりました。 桜は数日前に行きましたが、ソメイヨシノ、枝垂れ桜とも満開でした。

(Translated by Google) It's nice to find a fairly spacious spot in a residential area of ​​Amagasaki where you can really feel nature. You can enjoy the trees, flowers, and pond. It's not overly large, so I recommend just taking a stroll around the area. It seems like it would be good for both body and mind. I took one star off because the vending machines didn't seem to be working... This was about six months ago, but all the vending machines were dead... (Maybe they weren't even turned on?) That said, there are two convenience stores nearby, as well as a takoyaki shop, bakery, coffee shop, and soba restaurant, so it's still convenient. It's been hot lately, but once the temperature cools down a bit, I'd like to come back and bask in the sun while enjoying a light snack. (Original) 尼崎の住宅街に、けっこう広々と自然が感じられるスポットがあって助かっています。 木や花、池が楽しめます。めちゃくちゃ広すぎるとかでもないので、ぶらっと一周歩くとかオススメです。 心身によさそう。 星を１つ減らしたのは、自動販売機が稼働していなかったようであったこと…。 半年ほど前の話ではありますが、自動販売機が全滅状態でした…。 (電源自体入ってなかった？) といっても、近くにコンビニ２件、たこ焼き屋さんやパン屋さん、喫茶店やお蕎麦屋さんもあるので普通に便利です。 最近暑いですが、もうちょっと気温が落ち着いたら、何か軽く食べながらひなたぼっこに来訪したいです。

(Translated by Google) This park has remained unchanged for about 40 years since I was an elementary school student. There is a pond, but no fish. (Sometimes there are a few dragonfly nymphs.) However, wild birds such as herons sometimes stand in the pond, thinking there are fish there. There are some paths that are difficult to walk on, but I think the park is well maintained.

(Translated by Google) 2022.4.3 The cherry blossoms are almost in full bloom and beautiful. There are cherry blossom trees clustered at the back of the park. The water in the pond had been drained, but there was one gray heron. (Original) 2022.4.3 桜ほぼ満開で綺麗です。 公園奥にかたまって桜の木があります。 池の水は抜かれていましたが、アオサギが一羽いました。

We arrived at the parking lot about 10 minutes before opening and had to line up. When we pulled in a little less than half the spots were taken and it was full shortly after we walked out to go to the park. The water area is pretty nice with quite a few features and the size is great for a free park. In the neighboring grassy area there are very few shady places to set up a tent or a tarp sheet.

Very large park, good for families with small children. Jungle gym and slides not maintained so well, but still OK and lots of fun. Good splash pool for kids in summer. Beautiful gardens.

(Translated by Google) ■Parking lot It's a covered parking lot, which is really nice in the summer. However, on days when the weather is good, such as holidays and public holidays, there may be a queue for the parking lot. Prices are reasonable ■Piazza There is a large square where you can pitch a tent, spread out your lunch on a picnic table, or play badminton or ball. ■Hand washing area There are many hand-washing stations, but you can only use the hand-washing stations near the toilets. ■Play equipment There are just so many. The wooden athletic equipment is old and has peeling spots, so be careful of thorns (I actually got one...) There were a lot of large complex playground equipment, and there were a lot of children, but each of them seemed to be having fun. There are two roller slides, and there are plenty of other slides, swings, jungle gyms, and more so you won't get bored. (Original) ■駐車場 屋根のある駐車場なので夏場はかなりありがたいです。ただ、休日祝日など、天気の良い日は駐車場の待ち列ができることもあります 料金は良心的 ■広場 テントをおいたり、ピクニックテーブルでお弁当を広げたり、バドミントンやボール遊びなどもできるほど大きな広場あり ■手洗い場 たくさん手洗い場はありますが、トイレ付近の手洗い場しか使用出来ないようになっていました ■遊具 とにかくたくさんある。 木製のアスレチックのような遊具は年期が入っていて、はがれているところなどがあるので、トゲとか注意(実際ささりました…) 複合大型遊具がたくさんあり、子どももたくさんいましたが、各々、遊べている感じ。 ローラー滑り台も2箇所にあり、その他滑り台、ブランコ、ジャングルジムなどたくさんあり飽きないです。

(Translated by Google) This was my first visit as a family. The water was only about below my 3-year-old daughter's knees at the time, so I think I can safely let her play there. You may feel a little slimy at the bottom, which may bother some people. The day I visited was the last day that Wanpaku Pond was open, so I'm glad I went. It is a water play area that is perfect for small children and is recommended as it has various mechanisms. Even my daughter, who was still afraid of water, had a lot of fun playing here. I would like to go there again next summer if I have a chance. There are also many other playground equipment in the park, so it may be a good idea to visit for purposes other than the Wanpaku Pond. (Original) 家族で初めて伺いました。 水の高さは当時3歳の娘で膝下ほどでしたので、安心して遊ばせることができると思います。 少し底にぬるつきを感じることがあり、気になる方は気になるかもしれません。 ちょうど伺った日が、その時のわんぱく池開園最終日だったようで、行けて良かったです。 いろいろな仕掛けが施されており、小さなお子さんにはちょうど良い水遊び場でおすすめです。 まだ水が苦手だった娘も、ここでは大はしゃぎで遊んでいました。 また次の夏も、機会があれば遊びに行きたいと思います。 他にも公園内にはたくさんの遊具もありますので、わんぱく池以外の目的で訪れるのも良いかもしれません。

(Translated by Google) I've been there many times for cherry blossom viewing and for the playground and athletic equipment, but this was my first time at Wanpaku Pond. Preschoolers could probably enjoy a whole day of fun if they bring a tent and have somewhere to rest in the shade. Since it's purely a water play area, elementary school students and older might get bored halfway through. One thing to note is that there are some slightly slippery spots, so I wouldn't recommend it for parents who are sensitive to that. Also, despite the large number of young children, there were a certain number of parents who didn't watch their kids at all, so it's wise to keep an eye on your kids. We were there for about two hours, but I managed to keep about three people at bay lol. My child is still in the younger years, but he said he wanted to come again, so we'll take the 40-minute bike ride to come back. Note: I didn't notice it when I arrived, but it looks like there's a place to park your bike right next to Wanpaku Pond. My apologies if that was just because someone was parking in a place they weren't allowed. (Original) 花見や遊具・アスレチックでは何度も利用してましたが、初めてわんぱく池を利用しました。 未就学児であればテントを持っていったりして日陰で休めるようにすれば1日満足して遊べるんじゃないでしょうか。 あくまで水遊びなので、小学生以上は途中で飽きるかなと。 注意点としては少しヌルっとするところが随所にあるので、そういうのが気になる親御さんにはおすすめしません。 あと、小さい子が多い割に自分の子供を一切見ていない親が一定数居るので、自分の子供からは目を離さないようにした方が賢明です。 2時間ほどの滞在でしたが3人ほど牽制しましたw うちの子は年少ですが、また来たいと行ってたので自転車で40分かけてまた来ます。。。 ※自分は到着時気付きませんでしたが、わんぱく池すぐ横に自転車を停められる箇所ありそうです。 停めてはいけないところに停めてる人が居ただけだったらすいません。

(Translated by Google) As shown on the map, there were toilets at the edge of the park + near the water play area. We went at the end of July, so it was very hot and the slide was hot enough to burn your skin. We were able to play on all the other play equipment. When playing in the water, you have to take off your sandals and play barefoot. Parents supervising their children must also go barefoot when entering the water, and parasols are not allowed as they are dangerous. Everyone had their belongings, such as tea and strollers, placed around the area. There were rafts, water gun-like devices, waterfalls, and small waterfalls, and the water depth varied from 1cm to about 30cm, so even crawling children could play. There were lots of dragonflies and cicadas, and it looked like you could catch insects. Be careful as bees will come near to drink the water. The bottom of the water play area was sometimes covered in moss (or something) and was slimy, so be careful as it could be slippery. Other areas were rough? Or maybe it was scratchy? So if you fall you're likely to scrape your knees, and it can be dangerous for small children, especially if they're not with their parents, but you can still easily spend half a day there having fun. There are also about three lifeguards watching over you. (Original) 地図の通り公園の端+水遊びのそばにトイレがありました。 7月末に行ったのでとても熱く滑り台は火傷する温度でした。そのほかの遊具は一通り遊べました。 水遊びの方はサンダルを脱いで裸足で遊ばないといけません。 見守りの親も水の中に入る場合は裸足で日傘は当たると危ないので持ち込めません。 みなさん周りにお茶やベビーカーなど荷物を置いてました。 筏や水鉄砲のような仕掛け、滝、小さい滝もあり水深も1cmの所から30cmほどのところまで様々なのでハイハイの子でも遊べていました。 とんぼや蝉がたくさんいて虫つかみもできそう。水を飲みに蜂が近づいてくるので注意です。 水遊び場の底は時々コケ？でヌメっているので滑りやすく注意です。その他はザラザラ？チクチク？なのでコケるとそれはそれで膝を擦りむきそうで小さい子は特に親が隣にいないと水遊びですし危険ですが、半日は余裕で楽しめます。 監視員のおじさんも3人ほどいて見守ってくれています。

(Translated by Google) Rather than commenting, I would like to introduce the secret to this place's popularity and the fun it offers. Motohama Green Park is the most famous park in Amagasaki City, Hyogo Prefecture. The park is a vast plaza that looks like it could fit four apartment buildings. In the west area, there is a large forest and a small stream. In the summer, there is a pool where small children can play, and admission is free, attracting many visitors every year. In the east area, there is also a playground where you can walk, walk your dog, slide, and do other exercise and play activities, and there is also a space where you can eat lunch in the plaza. (There are only a limited number of tables, so we recommend bringing a picnic sheet.) There are also athletic facilities and a long slide. Parking is also available. (※During the summer vacation period, the parking lot may be crowded on Saturdays and Sundays, as the number of parking spaces is limited. We recommend coming by public transport, but if you are coming by car (if the parking lot is full), please use the P Zone 1 and 2 parking lots, which can be reached by continuing north on National Route 43, located on the north side of the park's parking lot entrance.) It's a great way to make memories, so why not take this opportunity to visit? Opening and closing times (※Due to COVID-19 infection prevention measures, opening and closing times may differ. For details, please check the website listed on Google Maps.) ・April to September 6:00 to 20:00 ・October to March 7:00 to 18:00 ・However, Wanpaku Pond is open from May to August from 9:00 to 17:00. (※Please note that Wanpaku Pond (children's shared pool) will be closed on Mondays.) This concludes the introduction. Have a nice day♪ (Original) コメントでは無く、ここでの人気の秘密、楽しさをご紹介したいと思います。 兵庫県尼崎市内では最も有名として知られている元浜緑地公園です。公園ではマンションが4棟建てれそうな広大な広場です。 西エリアでは、大きなの森と小さな小川があります。 そして、夏では小さいお子様が遊べるプールが無料で入場でき、毎年大勢の方が来場しています。 東エリアでは、ウォーキングや犬の散歩､滑り台などが出来る運動・遊び広場でもあり､広場で昼食が食べられるスペースもあります。 (※テーブルは限りがありますので、レジャーシートをご持参頂くことをオススメします。) アスレチックもあり、長い滑り台もあります。 駐車場も完備 (※特に夏休み期間中 土曜日、日曜日は駐車場にも台数に限りがありますので、混雑する恐れがあります。 交通機関でお越し頂くのもオススメ致しますが、車でお越しの方(駐車場が満車だった場合)は公園の駐車場出入口の北側にあります国道43号線をそのまま北上して頂きますと､P・ZONE第1第2駐車場）がありますので、そちらをご利用下さい。） お出かけの思い出にも最適ですので、この機会に是非､お足を運んでみてはいかがでしょうか？ 開閉時間 （※新型コロナウイルス感染対策に伴い、開閉時間が異なる場合があります。 詳しくは、Googleマップに記載されていますホームページにてご確認下さい。） ・4月～9月　6:00～20:00 ・10月～3月　7:00～18:00 ・但しわんぱく池は、5月～8月の9:00～17:00までです。 （※月曜日のわんぱく池（子供共用プール）は閉鎖の表記がありましたので、お知らせ致します。） これでご紹介を終わります。 Have a nice day♪　良い一日を♪

(Translated by Google) The priest here is the worst. It seems like the business is run by a father and son, but the father is very particular about the fact that he is only available from 9am to 5pm, and that he doesn't do things that are supposed to be done at the shrine. It even makes me look like a nuisance. My son is dealing with New Year's fortune, but it seems like it's really bothersome. I get chills watching it. I think I've always been able to do well with this. Since it's a shrine with no history, it didn't seem like it would have any blessings in the first place. I cannot recommend it to anyone who is thinking of visiting the shrine. (Original) ここの神主は最低ですね。 親子で経営してる様ですが、父親は、何にしても9時から5時までしか対応しないとか、本来神社で請け負うはずの事もうちではやってないの一点張り。なんなら迷惑そうにすらします。息子はお正月のおみくじを対応してますが、本当に煩わしそうな対応です。見ていて冷や冷やします。いつも、これで良くやっていけてるなと思います。 歴史もない神社なのでそもそも御利益もなさそうではありましたが。 ご参拝を考えられてる方にはあまりお勧めできません。

(Translated by Google) [About the history and faith of Tsukaguchi Shrine (very long and detailed)] "The deity and official name" Tsukaguchi Shrine is a shrine that enshrines Susanoo-no-Mikoto as its main deity. It also enshrines Ebisu-no-Okami, the deity of prosperous business and abundant catches, and Kushinadahime-no-Okami, the wife of Susanoo-no-Mikoto, who is closely related to agriculture and matchmaking. In the past, the shrine was named "Tsukaguchi Susanoo-no-Okami" after the deity, and was familiar to the locals as Gozu Tenno-sha. It was moved to its current location in 1886, at which point the name was changed to the current "Tsukaguchi Shrine." "The origins and history of the shrine" The date of its founding is unclear, but according to legend, it was first enshrined as the guardian deity of the land during the Tenpyo period (729-749) in the Nara period when the famous monk Gyoki Bodhisattva made a pilgrimage to the area. For 1,250 years since then, it has been worshiped as the guardian deity of Tsukaguchi. Since the Middle Ages, the enshrined deity Susanoo-no-Mikoto has been syncretized with Gozu Tenno in reference to Kyoto's Gion Shrine, and Tsukaguchi Shrine was once revered as a deity that wards off epidemics as the "Gozu Tenno Shrine." In fact, until around the Edo period, the Tenno Festival was held at Gion Shrines all over the country, and it is believed that the shrine was renamed to its current name and form of festival in the Meiji period following the separation of Shinto and Buddhism. There are no detailed records of the relocation during the Meiji period, but it is possible that it was due to the deterioration of the shrine building and the development of the area. The Edo period geography book "Setsuyo Gundan" states that "Gozu Tenno Shrine is located in Tsukaguchi Village, Kawabe County, and is the same as Rakuyo Gion Shrine," and records that this shrine, like Kyoto Gion Shrine (Yasaka Shrine), enshrines Gozu Tenno = Susanoo no Mikoto. For generations, local people have devoutly worshiped Susanoo no Mikoto as a guardian deity who protects them from disasters. The legend of Gyoki and "Gyoki-san's fish": One interesting legend surrounding the shrine's founding is about Gyoki and a fish called "Gyoki-san." While on a pilgrimage, Gyoki came across a fisherman trying to grill a strange fish he had caught in the Koyagawa River that flows near the shrine. Feeling sorry for the fish, Gyoki bought the fish that was about to be grilled and released it into the water. The fish immediately came back to life and swam away, to the amazement of the people. Since then, the crucian carp-like fish that live in this river have been called "Gyoki-san," and it is said that the custom of catching them but releasing them into the river without eating them continued until the early Showa period. This legend is a symbol of Gyoki's compassionate teachings that have been passed down in the region, and tells us that Tsukaguchi Shrine has been a spiritual anchor for the people since ancient times. "The role of the guardian deity of the region and the meaning of faith" As the local deity, Tsukaguchi Shrine has played the role of watching over and protecting the lives of the local residents. In mythology, Susanoo-no-Mikoto is a brave and courageous god who defeated the Yamata no Orochi (Yamata no Orochi) and saved Princess Inada, and is also known for the anecdote of his happy marriage to Princess Inada (Kushinadahime) afterwards. In connection with this myth, Susanoo-no-Mikoto is revered as a god who wards off misfortune and disasters, and also for his divine virtues of marital harmony and matchmaking. In fact, Tsukaguchi Shrine is said to have a wide range of benefits, including protection from disasters such as "protection from misfortune," "protection from illness," "protection from water," and "protection from fire," as well as bountiful harvests, academic advancement, matchmaking, and good fortune. This comes from Susanoo's power to exorcise evil and bring good fortune, and local people have entrusted all kinds of wishes, from daily health and safety to business prosperity and academic success, to this shrine, which is the guardian deity. The secondary deity, Ebisu Okami, is also one of the Seven Lucky Gods and is worshiped by merchants, industrialists, and fishermen as a god of business prosperity and abundant catches. Tsukaguchi does not face the sea, but Ebisu faith has been popular in Amagasaki, which was also a merchant town, since ancient times, and by enshrining Ebisu Okami at this shrine, prayers for prosperous business and a rich life are included. Kushinadahime Okami is a goddess who married after being saved by Susanoo, and because of this auspicious origin, she is worshiped as a symbol of good relationships, marital harmony, and agricultural prosperity. By enshrining these multiple gods together, Tsukaguchi Shrine has the significance of being a comprehensive shrine that protects the lives of local residents in general. In particular, in terms of warding off epidemics, following the tradition of worship as Gozu Tenno Shrine before the Meiji era, the shrine is strongly imbued with the desire to ward off evil epidemics. There are records of parishioners praying together at the shrine during epidemics in the Edo period to prevent epidemics from entering the village (according to oral tradition in the Amagasaki area). Even in modern times, many parishioners pray to the shrine as their tutelary deity during new infectious disease outbreaks, and it has become a place of security for the local community. "Major annual festivals and events" Various religious ceremonies and festivals are held at Tsukaguchi Shrine throughout the year, and are handed down as traditional events in the region. The autumn festival (commonly known as the Autumn Festival) is the most grand event, held every year on the weekend including October 18th (if October 18th falls on a weekday, it is brought forward to the Sunday immediately preceding it). The Yoimiya Festival is usually held on the night of October 17th. At around 9pm, the danjiri (floats) from each neighborhood enter the shrine grounds and parade around the shrine accompanied by the music of taiko drums and flutes. At the main shrine (the day of the festival) the following day, a Shinto ritual is held from 10am, after which the danjiri parade through the shrine's local community. The sight of the danjiri and futon drums from each neighborhood parading through the town accompanied by spirited chants is a spectacular sight, and the roads are bustling with spectators. The parishioners pull ropes in white robes and happi coats, and the whole town dedicates a float instead of a portable shrine, giving a sense of the tradition and unity that lives in Tsukaguchi. A scene from the Tsukaguchi Shrine Autumn Festival (a parade of danjiri and futon drums from each neighborhood). This is a seasonal autumn event in Tsukaguchi, where the local residents come together and get excited. During the festival, many stalls are set up in and around the shrine grounds, creating a festive atmosphere. The youth and women's associations of the shrine's parishioners also cooperate in the operation, making it a place for local interaction. In addition, an autumn festival fair is held in Tsukaguchi Shopping Street in conjunction with the festival, and events are planned for children to enjoy at the food stalls and game corner. Through these festivals, Tsukaguchi Shrine also plays a role as the center of the local community. In addition to this autumn festival, there are several other religious ceremonies throughout the year. Many local residents come to worship at the first New Year's festival (Saitansai) and the first shrine visit on New Year's Day, praying for safety and prosperity in the year. The Setsubun Festival is held on Setsubun in February, and a lively bean-throwing ceremony is held by priests and the oldest man and woman (in recent years, bags of lucky beans have also been awarded). In the spring, the Toshigoi Festival is held in late February to pray for a good harvest for the year. In the past, when there were still many fields in the surrounding area, the Otaematsuri (rice planting festival) was held in May to pray for a good rice harvest, and the ritual of planting seedlings was performed within the shrine grounds. At the end of June, the Nagoshi-no-Oharae (summer purification ceremony) is held, where people pass through a straw ring to purify themselves of the impurities of the past six months and pray for a safe summer. At the Niiname-sai (New Year's purification ceremony) in late November, people give thanks for the autumn harvest, and at the end of December, they prepare to welcome the New Year by purifying themselves of the sins and impurities of the past year. In addition, in mid-November, the peak of Shichi-Go-San (festival of the Seven-Five-Three Festival) is reached, and the grounds are filled with a peaceful atmosphere with families and children in cute formal attire. Through these annual events, Tsukaguchi Shrine accepts the prayers of local people at the turning points of each season and supports their lives. "Characteristics and highlights of the shrine and grounds" The stone torii gate of Tsukaguchi Shrine. Pairs of stone lanterns line the side of the approach, and in spring, about 10 cherry blossom trees form an arch to welcome worshippers. Although it is in an urban area close to JR and Hankyu stations, a quiet atmosphere fills the air as soon as you step inside the shrine grounds. As you pass through the stone torii gate in front and walk along the gravel approach, stone lanterns are lined up neatly on both sides, creating a sacred atmosphere. In cherry blossom season, the cherry blossom trees on the approach become a tunnel of flowers, creating a very gorgeous scene. The grounds are not very large, but the trees are moderately thick, and you can hear the babbling of the stream flowing next to it, making it a comfortable space. Located in a residential area, it is also a place of relaxation for the local community, and many locals can be seen visiting the shrine during their morning and evening walks. The worship hall of Tsukaguchi Shrine. The current shrine building, with its copper roof (green-blue color) and chidorihafu and karahafu, was newly built in 1973. A large shimenawa with the god's crest is hung in front of the building, and two lion-dog statues are enshrined on both sides. The current shrine building, consisting of the main hall, worship hall, and offering hall, was rebuilt in 1973 with modern materials, but it incorporates traditional designs such as chigi (roof fork pillars), katsuogi (wooden pieces on the roof), chidorihafu, and karahafu, giving it the dignity of shrine architecture. The roof is covered with shining green-blue copper sheets, and the entire shrine building has a simple yet dignified appearance. The old main hall before reconstruction was built in the Edo period, and the inscription on the ridge tile (roof ridge tile) from 1705 indicates that it existed in the early 18th century. Currently, the old main building has been relocated and remains as an Inari shrine within the precincts to the right of the main building, so you can see the building from the past. Some stone structures from the old main building remain within the precincts, such as a lion-dog statue dedicated in 1790 and a stone lantern built in 1836. These historical relics are proof that Tsukaguchi Shrine has attracted the faith of the local community for many years. In addition to the Inari shrine mentioned above, there are Gosha Shrine and Tejikarao Shrine as precincts (sub-shrines). As the name suggests, Gosha Shrine is a shrine that enshrines five gods, and when you look inside, you can see the nameplates of Ugahime-no-Okami, Toyoukehime-no-Okami, Sugawara no Michizane, and Kagutsuchi-no-Okami, and it seems that the gods of Inari, food, learning, and fire prevention are enshrined. It is believed to have been formed by integrating nearby smaller shrines during the Meiji period, and is believed to be a shrine that brings five blessings. Tejikarao Shrine is dedicated to Ame-no-Tajikarao-no-Mikoto, known from the Ama-no-Iwato myth, and is revered as a god of strength and good fortune. There is no plaque bearing the name of the shrine on the grounds, so it is difficult to tell at first glance, but according to the explanation on the history board, the gods enshrined here are as follows: (Original) 【塚口神社の歴史と信仰について（超長文・詳細）】 「御祭神と正式名称」 塚口神社（つかぐちじんじゃ）は、主祭神に須佐之男命（すさのおのみこと）をお祀りする神社です。配祀神として商売繁盛や豊漁の神である恵比須大神（えびすのおおかみ）と、須佐之男命の妻で農耕・縁結びにゆかりの深い櫛名田姫大神（くしなだひめのおおかみ）も祀られています。古くは社名も御祭神にちなみ「塚口須佐男神社」と称し、牛頭天王社（ごずてんのうしゃ）として地域に親しまれていました。明治19年（1886年）に現在地へ遷座し、このとき社名を現在の「塚口神社」に改めています。 「創建の由緒と歴史」 創建年代は定かではありませんが、伝承によれば奈良時代の天平年間（729～749年）に名僧・行基菩薩がこの地を巡錫した際、土地の守護神として祀ったのが始まりと伝えられています。以来1250年もの長きにわたり、塚口の地の鎮守（氏神）として信仰されてきました。中世以降、御祭神の須佐之男命は京都祇園社になぞらえ牛頭天王と習合されていたため、かつて塚口神社も「牛頭天王社」として疫病除けの神として崇敬されていたようです。事実、江戸時代頃までは各地の祇園社同様に天王祭が行われ、明治期に入ってから神仏分離に伴い現在の社名と祭礼形態に整えられたものと考えられます。明治期の遷座に関しては詳細な記録が残っていませんが、社殿老朽化や地域整備に伴う移転であった可能性があります。 江戸時代の地誌『摂陽群談』には「牛頭天王社川辺郡塚口村にあり、洛陽祇園社に同じ」との記述も見られ、当社が京都祇園社（八坂神社）と同じく牛頭天王＝須佐之男命を祀る社であることが記録されています。地域の人々は代々、この須佐之男命を災厄から守ってくれる鎮守様として篤く信仰してきました。 行基と「行基さんの魚」伝説: 創建にまつわる興味深い伝説として、行基と「行基さん」と呼ばれた魚の逸話があります。社近くを流れる昆陽川（こやがわ）で、行基が巡錫中に漁師が捕えた不思議な魚を焼こうとしている場面に遭遇しました。行基は哀れに思い焼かれかけた魚を買い取り、水中に放ちます。すると魚はたちまち息を吹き返して泳ぎ去ったため、人々は感嘆しました。以後、この川に棲むそのフナに似た魚は「行基さん」と呼ばれ、捕まえても食さず放流する習わしが昭和初期まで続いたと伝えられています。この伝説は、行基の慈悲深い教えが地域に受け継がれた象徴であり、塚口神社が古くから人々の心の拠り所であったことを物語っています。 「地域の守護神としての役割と信仰の意味」 塚口神社は氏神様として、地域住民の暮らしを見守り加護を与える役割を担ってきました。須佐之男命は神話で八岐大蛇（やまたのおろち）を退治し稲田姫を救った勇猛果敢な神であり、その後稲田姫（櫛名田姫）を妻としてめでたく結ばれた逸話でも知られます。この神話にちなみ、須佐之男命は厄除けや災難除けの神として、また夫婦和合・縁結びのご神徳でも崇敬されます。実際、塚口神社にも「厄除」「病難除」「水難除」「火難除」といった災厄消除や、五穀豊穣、学問上達、縁結び、開運など多岐にわたるご利益が伝えられています。これは須佐之男命の持つ魔を祓い福を招く力に由来し、地域の人々は日々の健康・安全から商売繁盛、学業成就に至るまで、あらゆる願い事を氏神である当社に託してきました。 配祀神の恵比須大神は七福神の一柱でもあり、商売繁盛や豊漁の神として商工業者や漁業関係者から信仰される神です。塚口は海には面しませんが、商人の町でもあった尼崎では古くから恵比須信仰が盛んで、当社でも恵比須大神を祀ることで商売繫盛・豊かな暮らしへの祈りが込められています。櫛名田姫大神は須佐之男命に救われた後に結婚した女神で、その縁起から良縁成就や夫婦円満、農耕繁栄の象徴として信仰されています。こうした複数の神々を併せ祀ることで、塚口神社は地域住民の生活全般を守護する総合的な神社としての意味合いを持っているのです。 特に疫病除けの面では、明治以前に牛頭天王社として信仰された流れを汲み、悪疫退散を願う気持ちが強く込められています。江戸時代には疫病流行時に氏子がこぞって祈願し、村内に疫病が入らぬよう祈祷が行われた記録も残っています（尼崎地域の口碑による）。現代においても、新型感染症流行時には氏神としての当社に健康祈願をする氏子が多く、地域の安心の拠り所となりました。 「年間の主な祭事・行事」 塚口神社では一年を通じて様々な神事・祭礼が執り行われ、地域の伝統行事として受け継がれています。特に秋の例祭（通称：秋祭り）は最も盛大な行事で、毎年10月18日を含む土日に開催されます（10月18日が平日の年は直前の日曜日に繰り上げ）。宵宮は例年10月17日夜に催され、午後9時頃に各町内のだんじり（山車）が神社境内へ宮入りし、太鼓や笛のお囃子とともに勇壮に練り歩きます。翌日の本宮（例祭当日）では午前10時から神事が斎行され、その後氏子地域を練り回るだんじり巡行が行われます。各町内から繰り出すだんじりや布団太鼓が威勢の良い掛け声とともに街を巡る様子は圧巻で、沿道は大勢の見物客で賑わいます。氏子たちは白装束や法被姿で綱を曳き、町をあげて神輿ならぬ山車を奉納する様子に、塚口の地に息づく伝統と団結を感じることができます。 塚口神社秋祭りの様子（各町のだんじりと布団太鼓の巡行）。地域住民が一体となり盛り上がる、塚口の秋の風物詩です。 例祭期間中は境内や周辺に多数の露店が立ち並び、お祭りムード一色となります。氏子の青年団や婦人会も運営に協力し、地域の交流の場ともなっています。また例祭に合わせて塚口商店街では秋祭り縁日が開催され、屋台やゲームコーナーで子供たちも楽しめるイベントが企画されます。こうした祭りを通じて、塚口神社は地域コミュニティの中心としての役割も果たしているのです。 この秋祭り以外にも、年間を通じた神事がいくつかあります。新年最初の歳旦祭（さいたんさい）や元旦の初詣では、多くの地域住民が参拝に訪れ、一年の無事と繁栄を祈ります。2月節分には節分祭が行われ、神職や年男・年女による豆まきが賑やかに催されます（近年は福豆の袋を授与する形も）。春には祈年祭（としごいのまつり）が2月下旬に執行され、その年の五穀豊穣を祈願します。かつて周辺に田畑が多く残っていた頃には、5月頃に稲作豊作を祈る御田植祭も行われていたとされ、苗を植える神事の所作が神社境内で披露されたとのことです。6月末には夏越の大祓（なごしのおおはらえ）が行われ、茅の輪くぐりによって半年間の穢れを祓い清め、夏を無事越せるよう祈ります。11月下旬の新嘗祭（にいなめさい）では秋の収穫に感謝を捧げ、12月末には年越しの大祓で一年の罪穢を祓って新年を迎える準備をします。さらに11月中旬には七五三の参拝もピークを迎え、可愛らしい晴れ着姿の子どもたちと家族連れで境内が和やかな雰囲気に包まれます。これら年間行事を通じ、塚口神社は四季折々の節目ごとに地域の人々の祈りを受け止め、その生活に寄り添っています。 「社殿・境内の特徴と見どころ」 塚口神社の石造鳥居。参道脇には対になった石灯籠が立ち並び、春には約10本の桜がアーチをつくって参拝者を迎えます。JRや阪急の駅に近い市街地ながら、一歩境内に足を踏み入れると静かな空気が漂います。正面の石鳥居をくぐり砂利敷きの参道を進むと、左右に石灯籠が整然と並び、神聖な雰囲気を醸し出しています。桜の季節には参道の桜並木が花のトンネルとなり、大変華やかな景色となります。境内はさほど広くはありませんが、樹木が適度に茂り、隣を流れる小川のせせらぎも聞こえて心地よい空間です。住宅街の中にあって地域の憩いの場にもなっており、朝夕の散歩ついでに参拝する地元の方も多く見られます。 塚口神社の拝殿。銅板葺（緑青色の屋根）に千鳥破風・唐破風を備えた現在の社殿は、昭和48年（1973年）に新築されたものです。社殿正面には神紋入りの大きな注連縄が掲げられ、両脇に狛犬が鎮座しています。現在の本殿・拝殿・幣殿から成る社殿は、1973年に近代的な資材で再建されたものですが、千木（屋根の叉柱）や勝男木（屋根上の木材）、千鳥破風や唐破風といった伝統的意匠を取り入れており、神社建築の風格を備えています。屋根は緑青色に輝く銅板葺きで、社殿全体が清楚な中にも威厳を感じさせます。 再建前の旧本殿は江戸時代に建てられたもので、その棟瓦（屋根の鬼瓦）に宝永2年（1705年）の銘が残っていたことから18世紀初頭には存在していたと分かります。現在、その旧本殿の建物は境内社の稲荷社として本殿向かって右手に移築・現存しており、往時の建物を直接目にすることができます。旧本殿由来の石造物もいくつか残っており、寛政2年（1790年）奉納の狛犬や、天保7年（1836年）造立の石灯籠などが境内に伝わっています。これらの歴史的遺物は、塚口神社が長い年月にわたり地域の信仰を集めてきた証と言えるでしょう。 境内社（末社）としては、先述の稲荷社のほかに五社神社と手力男神社があります。五社神社は社名の通り5柱の神々を合祀したお社で、中を覗くと宇賀姫大神・豊受姫大神・菅原道真公・火之迦具土大神などの御神名札が確認でき、稲荷・食物・学問・火防の神々を祀っているようです。これは明治期に周辺の小祠を統合したものと考えられ、五つの御利益を兼ね備えたお社として信仰されています。手力男神社は天岩戸神話で知られる天手力男命（あめのたぢからおのみこと）を祀ったお社で、力や開運の神として崇敬されています。境内社には社名の扁額が掲げられていないため一見わかりにくいですが、由緒板の説明によれば以上のような神々がお祀りされています。
