Uesugi Shrine, also known as Uesugi Jinja, was established in 1871 to honor the legendary Sengoku era shogun Kenshin Uesugi. This shrine is a significant site in Yonezawa and attracts visitors year-round who come to pray for various blessings such as prosperity and the well-being of newborns. The serene surroundings of the shrine create a peaceful atmosphere, making it an ideal place for contemplation and leisurely walks.
I visited Uesugi Jinja when visiting Yonezawa and I definitely would recommend it to any visitors! This temple was peaceful to walk through and take in the beautiful nature surrounding it. The temple was quiet and not crowded. Around the temple was a beautiful river the many coi fish that locals were feeding with bread. This was something so special and pure to witness. This temple sold Goshuinchou and omamoris.

Self-reliance is key. Why not pay a visit to the shrine to heighten your feeling of "if you try, you can achieve it?" After your visit, it would be a good idea to purchase the "if you try, you can achieve it" charm.

Shrine to the great samurai warrior Uesugi Kenshin (1530-1578) of the warring states period. Kenshin ruled Echigo in the days before the Uesugi clan was sent to Yonezawa after opting for the losing side against Tokugawa Ieyasu at Sekigahara (1600)

Yonezawa Castle Ruins, located in a historical city center, was once home to the Nagai clan and later governed by the Uesugi clan. The castle grounds are now identifiable by surrounding moats and connecting bridges leading to Matsugasaki Park. The park features statues of military commanders and politicians from the Sengoku period to the Edo period, providing an opportunity to learn about Japan's history.
This is a really great place. Historical and beautiful

(Translated by Google) This castle is one of the 100 Greatest Castles in Japan, and was the headquarters of the Yonezawa Domain during the Edo period. The surrounding earthworks and moat give the impression of a castle, but today it's probably better known as Uesugi Shrine. The moat itself is small enough that you can walk around it in about 10 minutes, so I imagine it was a relatively modest castle even in the past. The north side of the moat resembles a lotus field. I visited in September, so the peak season had passed, but I'm sure it would be a spectacular sight in the summer. Also, the flags with the characters "Bi" and "Ryu" fluttering above the main gate are really cool. Whenever I see the character "Bi," I automatically think of Uesugi Kenshin, so it's amazing how powerful imprinting can be. There are bronze statues scattered throughout the park, including a statue of Lord Uesugi Kenshin, the strongest warrior of the Sengoku period, as well as Uesugi Kagekatsu, the first lord of the Yonezawa Domain, his military strategist Naoe Kanetsugu, and the renowned ruler Uesugi Yozan, still revered and loved by many today, as well as other aces associated with the Uesugi clan. It seems that Date Masamune was born here, and although it is compact, it is a castle ruin that has been home to many stars. (Original) 江戸時代に米沢藩の藩庁が置かれた続百名城の一つです。 ぐるりと囲む土塁とお堀が城があったんだなーと想像させてくれますが、今は上杉神社といった方がいいかもしれません。お堀(外周)自体は10分ほどで1週できる程度の規模で往時も比較的質素なお城であったのかと思います。 お堀の北側が蓮畑の様になっており、訪れたのは9月だったのでピークは過ぎていましたが、夏には壮観な風景になると思います。 あと、正門にたなびく「毘」と「龍」の旗がかっこいいです。 「毘」の一字を見ると上杉謙信公と反射的にアウトプットされるので、刷り込みって怖いなと思います。 戦国最強の上杉謙信候の像をはじめ、米沢藩初代藩主である上杉景勝公と軍師直江兼続公、現在でも多くの人に敬われ愛される名君上杉鷹山公、上杉家ゆかりのエース達の銅像が所々に立っていました。伊達政宗公もこちらで出生されたようで、コンパクトながらも数々のスターがおられた城跡でした。

I was so impressed by this museum! It has many different visual aids (illustrations, videos, dioramas) to bring the history to life. The artwork is high quality.

Matsugasaki Shrine is a serene place enshrining Yozan Uesugi and other notable figures. It's located near Uesugi Joshien, where you can savor local delicacies and crafts. The shrine is adjacent to Uesugi Shrine and has a beautiful garden. It's also known for its association with Yonezawa Dori and the historical significance of Uesugi Takayama, making it an essential stop during your visit to the park.
(Translated by Google) Matsusaki Shrine in Yonezawa City, Yamagata Prefecture, is known as a shrine associated with Uesugi Yozan, Uesugi Kagekatsu, and Naoe Kanetsugu. Matsusaki Shrine enshrines people associated with the Uesugi family, including the Sengoku warlords Uesugi Yozan, Uesugi Kagekatsu, and Naoe Kanetsugu. In particular, the fact that Uesugi Yozan was separated from Uesugi Shrine during the Meiji period symbolizes the relationship between Matsusaki Shrine and Uesugi Yozan and Naoe Kanetsugu. What is the relationship between Matsusaki Shrine, Uesugi Yozan, and Naoe Kanetsugu? ⦿Uesugi Yozan In the Meiji period, he was separated from Uesugi Shrine and enshrined at Matsusaki Shrine. Uesugi Yozan is known for his efforts in rebuilding the finances of the Yonezawa domain. ⦿Naoe Kanetsugu In 1938, he was separated and enshrined at Matsusaki Shrine to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the establishment of Yonezawa City. Naoe Kanetsugu was also a famous general who played an active role in both domestic and foreign affairs as a vassal of Uesugi Kagekatsu. Other ⦿ Uesugi Kagekatsu, Hosoi Heishu, and Takemata Toami are also enshrined at Matsusaki Shrine. ⦿ Features of Matsusaki Shrine There is a bronze statue of Uesugi Yozan and a stone monument with his famous quote, "Denkoku no Ji," in the shrine grounds. ⦿ You can receive Uesugi Yozan's amulet, "If you try, you can achieve it." Matsusaki Shrine plays an important role in telling the history of Yonezawa as a place to remember people associated with the Uesugi family, including Uesugi Yozan and Naoe Kanetsugu, and to praise their achievements. (Original) 山形県米沢市にある松岬神社は、上杉鷹山、上杉景勝・直江兼続ゆかりの神社として知られています。『松岬神社』は、戦国武将の上杉鷹山、上杉景勝、直江兼続など上杉家ゆかりの人々を祀っています。特に明治時代に上杉神社から上杉鷹山が分祀されたことが松岬神社と上杉鷹山、直江兼続との関係を象徴しています。 『松岬神社と上杉鷹山、直江兼続の関係は?』 ⦿上杉鷹山 明治時代に上杉神社から分祀され、松岬神社に祀られました。上杉鷹山は、米沢藩の財政再建に尽力したことで知られています。 ⦿直江兼続 昭和13年に米沢市制50周年を記念して松岬神社に分祀されました。また、直江兼続は上杉景勝の家臣として内政・外交の両面で活躍した名将です。 その他 ⦿松岬神社には、上杉景勝、細井平洲、竹俣当網も祀られています。 ⦿松岬神社の特徴 上杉鷹山の銅像や彼の名言『伝国の辞』の石碑が境内にあります。 ⦿上杉鷹山のお守り『なせば成る守り』を授かることができます。 松岬神社は、上杉鷹山や直江兼続をはじめとする上杉家ゆかりの人々を偲び、その功績を称える場所として、米沢の歴史を語る重要な役割を果たしています。

(Translated by Google) This shrine was built to enshrine Takayama Uesugi, but later Kagekatsu Uesugi and Kanetsugu Naoe were also enshrined here. It is a quiet place as it is off the tourist route. There is an awarding office next to the main shrine, but it was closed in 2021, and if you want a goshuin, you will have to visit the Uesugi Shrine office. (Original) 上杉鷹山公を祀る目的で建立された神社ですが、後に上杉景勝、直江兼続も祀るようになりました。観光ルートから外れている為、静かな場所です。本殿の脇に授与所がありますが、令和三年に閉鎖され、御朱印が欲しければ、上杉神社の社務所へ伺わなければならないそうです。

(Translated by Google) This shrine is located across the moat from Uesugi Shrine. It enshrines many great rulers and heroes who represent Yonezawa, including Lord Kagekatsu, the first lord of the Yonezawa domain, Lord Uesugi Yozan, who is renowned as the wise ruler who revived the Yonezawa domain, Lord Uesugi Kagekatsu, and his military strategist, Lord Naoe Kanetsugu. (Original) 上杉神社とお堀を隔てたところにある神社です。米沢藩初代藩主・景勝公、米沢藩中興の名君として名高い上杉鷹山公をはじめ米沢藩初代藩主の上杉景勝候その軍師である直江兼続公と米澤を代表する錚々たる名君・英傑をお祀りされています。

もうすぐ — Google review
(Translated by Google) A small shrine whose main deity is Takayama Uesugi. Uesugi Shrine is large, so it doesn't stand out and there aren't many worshipers, but it has a nice and calm atmosphere. Outside of Yamagata Prefecture, Lord Takayama may be more famous than his name for his song, ``If you do it, it will happen, if you don't do it, it won't happen; if anything doesn't happen, it's because of the people who don't do it.'' This song is said to have been modeled after the words of Takeda Shingen, who was a rival of Kenshin, the first generation of the Uesugi clan. This shrine is dedicated to a famous lord who contributed so much to the Yonezawa clan that he was considered a participle even though he was an adopted child, so we recommend that you visit it together with Uesugi Shrine. Basically unmanned. Goshuin stamps can be obtained at the shrine office of Uesugi Shrine. Free parking and toilets are shared with Uesugi Shrine. (Original) 上杉鷹山公を主祭神とする小規模神社。上杉神社が大きいので目立たず参拝者は少ないが落ち着いた良い雰囲気です。 山形県民以外だと鷹山公は名前より『なせば成る なさねば成らぬ 何事も 成らぬは人の なさぬなりけり』という歌の方が有名かも。この歌は上杉家初代謙信公のライバルだった武田信玄の言葉を模範にしたとされている。 養子ながら分詞されるぐらい米沢藩に貢献した名君の祀られる神社なので、上杉神社と一緒に参拝される事をオススメします。 基本的に無人。御朱印は上杉神社の社務所で頂けます。 無料駐車場、トイレは上杉神社と共通です。
Ar K — Google review
(Translated by Google) It is a set shrine of Uesugi Shrine and is enshrined in front of the approach to the shrine. The company's name is derived from Yonezawa Castle's other name, ``Matsumisaki Castle.'' Uesugi Takayama was enshrined separately from Uesugi Shrine and a shrine building was built as Matsumisaki Shrine. Later, Kagekatsu Uesugi, Kanetsugu Naoe, Hirasu Hosoi, Totsuna Takemata, and Yoshimasa Kaito were enshrined, bringing the total number of deities enshrined to six. The precincts are full of greenery and have a good atmosphere. The bowl of chozu is made from natural stone. The guardian dog that protects the shrine is a standard design. There was a stone monument called Denkoku no ji. I had a goshuin written in flowing characters. (Original) 上杉神社の摂社で参道前に鎮座しています。社号は米沢城の別称「松岬城」に由来している。上杉神社から上杉鷹山を分祀して松岬神社として社殿を建立した。その後、上杉景勝、直江兼続、細井平洲、竹俣当綱、莅戸善政を合祀して祭神は六柱となった。 境内は緑が多く雰囲気が良い。手水は鉢が自然石を加工したものです。神社を護る狛犬はスタンダードなデザインです。伝国の辞という石碑がありました。流れるような字の御朱印を書いていただきました。
しょうじしんや — Google review
(Translated by Google) This is Matsusaki Shrine. The deity worshipped here seems to be Lord Uesugi Yozan. The shrine's former rank was prefectural. (Original) 松岬神社です。 ご祭神は上杉鷹山公のようです。 旧社格は縣社。

Toko Sake Museum, established in 1597 and managed by Kojima Sohoten, is a prominent sake museum in Tohoku. It offers an extensive display of the brewery's history and allows visitors to taste various sake varieties, including the renowned 'Toko' brand and award-winning umeshu. Housed in a historic building that was once a sake brewery, the museum features old merchant equipment exhibits, traditional room reconstructions, and a serene garden.
This sake museum is housed in a wonderful old building which was itself a sake brewery before Toko took on the responsibility for renovating it. So glad that they preserved it! It's worth checking if a guide is available to get the most out of your visit but you can also follow along with the English explanations. The exhibition of old merchant equipment and reconstructions of traditional rooms are really interesting and don't miss out on the lonely garden. It's best not to drive if visiting here so that you can do some sake sampling. Toko's sake is very high quality and, with a variety of types to choose from, you are sure to find one that you like.

Totally worth the money. Excellent sake making displays as well as the rooms and the garden. Interesting history on the Wagu beef cattle raised locally. Sake tasting was fun, but of course I would like bigger portions, and who wouldn't? LOL. The young woman at the tasting room made a excellent recommendation to a upscale beef restaurant that was totally a great experience and reasonable priced lunch.

As a sake lover, if you are traveling Yamagata and stopping by Yonezawa, give Toko Sake Museum a visit. Toko, as one of the oldest sake breweries in Japan, produces some of the nicest sake in the market. Here, not only can you visit the museum to learn about part of the history of sake, you can also taste different sakes by Kojima Sohonten: from the brewery execlusive bottles, to the very premium top-of-the-line execellence. It is a must-visit for sake enthusiasts visit Yonezawa.

Park
Matsugasaki Park, situated on the former grounds of Yonezawa Castle, offers a serene atmosphere with its water-filled moats and historical sites related to the influential Uesugi clan. It's a great spot for families to take a leisurely stroll and appreciate the park's beauty while also appealing to history enthusiasts interested in Japan's feudal history. The park hosts events like the Uesugi Lantern Festival, creating a magical ambiance with illuminated sakura trees and a picturesque red bridge.
A beautiful historic location, great not only for families to stroll and admire the beauty of the park, but also for those fascinated by Japan's feudal history, particularly of the Uesugi Clan. I went during the Uesugi Lantern Festival and the atmosphere was fantastic. I first went on the night the lanterns were first lit, which was pretty magical, especially seeing the (then bare) sakura trees lit up alongside the moat leading the eye to a beautiful red bridge also lit up. The next day the festival was in full swing, with food carts out selling classing Japanese festival food fare as well as souvenirs. The energy was fantastic, watching kids have snowball fights and couples taking pictures with the lanterns it was truly picturesque. I wuold love to return when the cherry blossom are in full bloom and to learn more of the Uesugi Shrine!

The Mausoleum of the Uesugi family is a burial ground located in Japan. It is the final resting place for members of the influential Uesugi family, who played a significant role in Japanese history during the Edo period. The mausoleum consists of several tombs and monuments built in traditional Japanese architectural style with intricate details, surrounded by beautiful gardens and ponds.
(Translated by Google) This mausoleum enshrines the 15 generations of the Uesugi family since Kenshin Uesugi. When I visited over 20 years ago, I missed the 5pm mark and could only view it from the outside, but my wish finally came true. Silence enveloped the mausoleum, and as I walked through the main street flanked by large cedar trees, I found Kenshin's mausoleum directly in front of me, with the mausoleums of past heads of the family on either side. The wooden mausoleum has a simple feel, but its construction exudes the majesty of the Uesugi family. What I felt when I visited this place was how proud the people of Yonezawa are of the Uesugi. Although the mausoleum is a national historic site, it is managed by the city, and the people working at the reception desk and other areas were local volunteers. It was a place that made me realize how much the Uesugi family has always put the people first in their governance, and that this spirit is still carried on today. There were many warlords during the Sengoku period, but I don't think there is any other warlord who is as beloved and revered by the local people as this one. It's a place I recommend visiting, along with Kasugayama in the distant Joetsu region. (Original) 上杉謙信以降の上杉家当主15代を祀ったお廟。 20数年前訪問した時は17時に間に合わず外から眺めるだけでしたが、ようやく念願が叶いました。 静けさが廟内を覆い、杉の大木に挟まれた表通りを抜けると、正面に謙信公廟、左右に歴代当主の廟が鎮座しています。木造の廟は質素な感じながら、上杉家の威光を感じさせる作りです。 この地を訪れて感じたのは、米沢の人々が如何に上杉を誇りに思っているかということ。廟は国の史跡でありながら市が管理し、受付などにいた方も地元のボランティアの方々でした。常に民を第一に考えた統治を続けてきた上杉家だからこそ、今でもその意思が引き継がれているのだろうと感じる場所でした。 戦国武将は多くいますが、ここまで市民に愛され、今でも敬われている武将は他にはないと思います。遠く上越の春日山とあわせて、訪問してほしい場所です。
Tomo “ — Google review
(Translated by Google) This is the grave of the Uesugi family. Just seeing cedar trees standing in a row seems to give you power. There is an admission fee, but parking is free. There is the largest cedar tree to the left of the row of graves. I was able to think back to the past, thinking that I had been watching over the graveyard for a long time. When I went, there was still some snow left and it was a great atmosphere. (Original) 上杉家のお墓です。 杉の木が立ち並んでいるだけでもパワーをもらえそうです。 拝観料は必要ですが駐車場は無料でした。 並んだお墓の左奥に1番大きな杉の木があります。 昔から墓所を見守っていたのだと思うと昔に想いを馳せることができました。 行った時は良い感じに雪が残っていて最高の雰囲気でした。
ゆうの — Google review
(Translated by Google) I visited the shrine first thing in the morning on August 14, 2025. The weather was beautiful, so I had a pleasant time visiting. The admission fee is 500 yen, but since the only graves on display are those of the successive heads of the Uesugi family, I don't think it's suitable for tourists looking for something to see. It's not particularly fun for families with children, so I wouldn't recommend it. It's fine if you want to get your child interested in history. (Original) 25'08.14朝一番に来廟 天候が良好で気持ち良くお参りできました 拝観料が500円かかりますが、あるのは上杉家代々当主のお墓しかありませんので、見所を求める観光目的の方々には向かないと思います、特に子ども連れですと楽しいところではないのであまりおすすめできませんね、歴史に興味を持たせる等でしたらよろしいかと思います。

(Translated by Google) During my trip to Fukushima, I stopped off in Yonezawa. First, I visited Uesugi Shrine, and then I visited the Uesugi Shrine, about a five-minute drive away. The Uesugi family graveyard, affectionately known as "Gobyō" or "Otamaya" in Yonezawa, is a nationally designated historic site. The mausoleums of successive feudal lords, such as the first lord Kenshin, the second lord Kagekatsu, and the tenth lord Harunori (Yōzan), are all prominent figures in Japanese history, and they tell the story of the Uesugi family and Yonezawa. The mausoleum, with its solemn atmosphere, felt like a special place in Yonezawa. (Original) 福島の旅で、米沢に立ち寄り訪れました。最初に上杉神社に参拝し、そこから車で5分程の所にあります。上杉家墓所は、米沢では、「御廟」または「おたまや」と呼ばれ親しまれていて、国指定史跡として登録されています。杉木立の中に整然と立ち並ぶ歴代藩主の廟屋は、初代謙信公、2代景勝公、10代治憲公(鷹山公)などは、日本史に名を連れる人物で、上杉家と米沢の歴史を物語っています。厳かな雰囲気漂う廟所は、米沢では特別な場所だと感じました。

(Translated by Google) From JR Yonezawa Station, take the Yamako Bus bound for Onogawa Onsen for about 10 minutes, get off at the Gobyōsho-mae stop, and it's a 5-minute walk. You can also walk from Nishi-Yonezawa on the Yonesaka Line. There is a parking lot. Previously, mausoleums were built alternately on both sides, with the second lord, Kagekatsu, at the center. Later, when Kenshin's remains, which had been enshrined in the main keep of Yonezawa Castle, were moved to the Uesugi family mausoleum in 1876, the current landscape of mausoleums lined up in an orderly fashion with Kenshin at the center was born. Walking along the quiet, solemn approach surrounded by cedar trees, you will feel a dignified atmosphere as you come across flags bearing "Bi," symbolizing the Uesugi family, and "Ryu," representing Kenshin. In the noiseless silence, the chirps of birds and the guide's message echo. (Original) JR米沢駅前から山交バス小野川温泉行きで約10分、御廟所前下車、徒歩5分にあります。米坂線西米沢から歩くこともできます。 駐車場もあります。 以前は2代目景勝公を中心に左右交互に廟が建てられていました。その後米沢城本丸に祀られていた謙信公のご遺骸が1876年に上杉家廟所に移されると、謙信公を中心に整然と廟が立ち並ぶ現在の景観になりました。 杉木立に囲まれた静粛で厳かな趣きの参道を進むと、上杉家を象徴する「毘」謙信公を表す「龍」の旗が並び凛とした空気が感じられます。 雑音の無い静寂の中で、鳥の声とガイドのメッセージが響いています。

(Translated by Google) At the end of the approach to the shrine, surrounded by tranquil trees, is Kenshin's mausoleum, and the mausoleums of the successive lords of Yonezawa are lined up in an orderly fashion, creating an overwhelmingly grand sight. Beginning with Lord Takayama, burials were conducted in the ground, and it is interesting to note that the mausoleums of subsequent lords are different from those before. Am I the only one who feels a sense of transience in the way the grave of his rival Kenshin is enshrined so solemnly, compared to the grave of Takeda Shingen, which is located on the side of a small road in Kofu? (Original) 深閑とした木々の中の参道の先の中央奥に鎮座するのが謙信廟、それを守るように歴代米沢藩主の廟所が整然と並ぶ偉観は圧倒的です。鷹山公からは土葬となり、それ以降の藩主の廟の形がそれ以前と違っているのも興味深いです。甲府の小径の道端にある武田信玄の墓に比し、ライバル謙信の墓はこのように厳かに祀られていることに儚さを感じるのは私だけでしょうか。

However, the admission fee is a little high. When you get a goshuin (red seal) at Uesugi Shrine, you can get a discount coupon for the admission fee, so it's better to get a set of the goshuin and the admission fee.

(Translated by Google) Keishoden is pronounced Keishoden. "Keisho" is said to come from the phrase "Keiko terakon" (to study the past and apply it to the present) found in the preface to the Kojiki. It's the same as "Onko chishin" (to learn from the past). The main hall and Uesugi Shrine were designed by architect Dr. Ito Chuta, a master of shrine and temple architecture in the Meiji period, a recipient of the Order of Culture, and an honorary citizen of Yonezawa City. On display here are Kenshin's favorite "bajouhai" (horseback cup), his "iroiro irezumi belly warmer" (a variety of ivory-colored belly warmer) and "eboshi-style white twill hood" (a white twill hood with an eboshi design). There is also a suit of armor with a front plate bearing the character "ai" (love), said to have been owned by the famous Naoe Kanetsugu. (Original) 稽照殿、けいしょうでんと読みます。 「稽照」とは、 古事記の序文にある「稽古照今」 (古(いにしえ)を稽(かんが)え、今に照らす) に由来するそうです。「温故知新」と同じですね。 本殿と上杉神社の設計者は、明治時代の社寺建築の名人であり、文化勲章受章者で米沢市の名誉市民でもある建築家伊東忠太博士です。 こちらには、謙信公が愛用した「馬上杯」、謙信公が身につけた「色々威腹巻」「烏帽子形白綾頭巾」。また有名な直江兼続が所有していたといわれる「愛」の前立の甲冑があります。

(Translated by Google) This is a temple located in Nishiodori, Yonezawa City, Yamagata Prefecture. Hosen-ji is a Rinzai sect temple founded by Lord Naoe Kanetsugu and was originally named Zenrin-ji. . The name of the temple was changed from Zenrin-ji to Hosen-ji, taking the Buddhist name of Kamehime, the third daughter of the second feudal lord Sadakatsu. It is said that the Monju-do Hall in the precincts was built by the second-generation monk Zetsuzan, who commissioned Kirito's Monju (Miyazu City, Kyoto Prefecture) in 1648. The current hall was rebuilt in 1930.

(Translated by Google) (Visited on January 19, 2025) We started from Grandeco Snow Resort (Fukushima) (please refer to the reviews of Nishidaijin to reach the summit of Nishidaijin). Descend from the summit of Mt. Nishidai and then climb back up again, reaching the summit in about 45 minutes. The summit sign is buried in snow, but it appears on what looks like a wide hill, so I think you can get a rough idea of ​​where it is. However, it seemed to be more susceptible to the influence of wind than Nishidairin. The view from the summit of Mt. Nishi-Azuma is also wonderful, but I think the view is slightly better from the summit of Mt. Nishi-Owa and the saddles of Nishi-Owa and Mt. Nishi-Azuma.

(Translated by Google) Mount Nishi-Azuma, one of Japan's 100 Famous Mountains, stands at 2,035 meters. This is the most beautiful of Japan's 100 Famous Mountains I've ever visited. If you choose the right season and weather, you can witness a dazzling display of crimson maple leaves and a vibrant array of colors. Driving from Yamagata City early in the morning, it takes about an hour to reach the Yumoto Cable Car Station at the foot of the mountain. The station opens at 8:00 AM, and the round-trip ticket is 4,500 yen. The large gondola takes about 10 minutes to the Tengendai Plateau station, where you transfer to a small double ski lift. After three transfers, it takes about 40 minutes to reach the trailhead. The trailhead is already 1,800 meters above sea level, and the cable car alone ascends 900 meters. The scenery is breathtaking. The initial path is a narrow forest path, but after about half an hour, you'll reach the mountain ridge, where crimson and yellow maple leaves burst forth, and the expansive view unfolds. The gentle ascent and descent is truly relaxing, reminiscent of a scene from Howl's Moving Castle. There aren't many forks along the way, mostly on wooden plank roads. After about half an hour, you'll reach a spring where water flows out. From there, you'll begin climbing a rocky path, and after about another half-hour, you'll reach Brahma Rock. The scenery here is beautiful, with a sea of ​​giant rocks. After about 10 minutes, you'll reach the fork in the road at the shrine, where you can choose to make an O-shaped path back and forth. After about 20 minutes, you'll reach the summit. There's no triangulation point at the summit, just a signpost and pillars nestled in the forest. The area isn't very large. Further up the mountain, you can make an O-shaped path back and forth, but since we were pressed for time this time, we chose to make the same path back and forth. After descending, we visited the shrine again. Most people took the O-shaped path, so we didn't stay long before descending. The spring water after descending was refreshing, perfect for washing off the dirt from climbing the rocks. After descending, we ended our satisfying journey with a thrilling ride on the ski lift, which felt like a swing in the sky. Excluding the cable car, the round trip takes about 3.5 hours, covering a distance of about 3.5 kilometers and a total of about 400 meters. If the weather is good, it is a very relaxing and pleasant hike to Baimingshan. (Original) 西吾妻山,日本百名山之一,高2035M 這是我走過最美的日本百名山,挑對季節跟天氣來,可以見到滿山的楓紅跟千紅萬紫。 一早從山形市區開來,約1小時能到山下的湯元纜車站。纜車站8點開放,票價來回4500日圓。搭大的廂型纜車,約10分可以到中繼站天元台高原,續換乘滑雪用的小型雙人纜車,轉乘3次,約40分才到登山口。 登山口就已經是海拔1800M,光坐纜車就已上升900M,風景非常的好。一開始是山林小路,後走約半小時,就可接紅黃楓葉綻放及開闊景色的山稜,一路緩上緩下,讓人十分愜意,這邊非常像霍爾移動城堡的場景。 一路上岔路不多,大多走在搭好的木板路上,約走半小時便會接山泉水流出之地,之後就開始接攀爬石頭之路,約半小時就可接到梵天岩。 這邊風景很好,一片巨石岩。續走約10分,就可到神社岔路口,可以選擇O型來回。 續走約20分,就可到山頂。山頂無三角點,只有在一片森林中的立牌跟立柱,腹地不是很大。往前走可O型來回,這次時間稍趕,所以選擇原路來回。 下山再去神社參訪一下,大部份人都是O型來回,沒待太久就下山了。下山後的山泉水十分沁涼,可以洗去攀爬巨石的泥沙。後一路下山,就在搭十分刺激且像空中盪鞦韆的滑雪纜車中結束這趟讓人十分滿意的旅程! 不含纜車,來回約3.5小時,距離約3.5KM,上下約400M。天氣好的話,是個非常輕鬆宜人的百名山。

(Translated by Google) I pistoned from the Deco Hiraguchi parking lot to the top of the mountain. It's hard to find where to park, the roads are rough, and the first half of the mountain trail is wet and slippery. This course is suitable for experienced users. If you use a gondola or other vehicle, you can easily get to the mountainside, and I think the course from there is relatively easy to walk. I think you can enjoy the scenery too. However, the top of Mt. Nishiazuma is surrounded by trees and there is no view. There is a place a little further away where you can enjoy a wide view, so we recommend that for lunch or a break. (Original) デコ平口駐車場から山頂へピストンしました。駐車の場所がわかりづらく悪路、また登山道も前半は濡れていて滑りやすいです。こちらのコースは経験者向きです。 ゴンドラなどの乗り物を利用すれば、山腹まで苦労せず行けますし、そこからのコースは比較的歩きやすいと思います。景色も楽しめると思います。 ただし西吾妻山の頂上は木々に囲まれ、眺望はありません。少し離れたところに広く景色が楽しめる場所がありますので、ランチや休憩はそちらがおすすめです。

Shirakawa Lake is a hidden gem that transforms into a breathtaking submerged forest each spring, from late March to late May. As the snow melts and water levels rise, trees become partially submerged, creating an enchanting landscape perfect for exploration. Canoe tours offer an intimate experience of this unique scenery, allowing visitors to glide through the misty waters surrounded by towering trees. Early mornings are particularly magical when the lake is shrouded in fog, adding to its allure.
Such a beautiful lake and place. Ample parking space. You can stroll around. Toilets are next to the parking. You can try boating and kayaking which is such a fun activity to do. You can also find small water sprout where you can find cold water. Everything is so scenic and totally recommendable🙏🏻🙏🏻

The Yonezawa Textile Historical Museum is a treasure trove for textile enthusiasts, showcasing the exquisite Yonezawa pongee and delving into the rich history of Japan's textile industry. This museum highlights how local policies encouraged young men and women from esteemed families to engage in weaving, ultimately establishing Yonezawa as a prominent center for textile production.
Really interesting place. The shop also has really nice products made from locally produced silk.

I didn't go into the museum, but there's a gift shop on the first floor that sells products made from Yonezawa textile. You can find everything from little pouches for a few hundred yen to neckties for about 5000 yen to yukata and kimono fabrics for much much more. Worth stepping in for a look if you're walking between the station and Uesugi Shrine.

(Translated by Google) I was told that the museum was closed, so I took a tour of the shops on the first floor. A small portion of the first floor had simple materials, samples, and looms on display. You can watch videos and try your hand at looming. He carefully explained each product one by one. I bought a business card holder for myself that had a very simple color and design and was easy to use. (Original) 資料館は閉館とのことでしたので1階のお店部分を見学させて貰いました。1階の一部は少ないですが簡単な資料やサンプルや機織器が展示してありました。ビデオも鑑賞できますし、機織器もトライできるようです。製品について一つ一つ丁寧に説明もしてくださいました。色とデザインがとてもシンプルで使いやすい自分用の名刺入れを買って帰りました。

(Translated by Google) The museum has been reduced in size and only the first floor is open. Still, I had a lot of fun. Highly recommended for those interested in textiles and dyeing. There are many museums and museums related to dyeing and weaving all over the country, but in Yamagata you can see authentic safflower dyeing, so it will get you excited (*´v`*) The shop sells Yonezawa-ori kimono, stoles, and accessories, as well as clothing fabrics. The same goes for Kiryu, but recently we have begun to see a lot of kimonos being woven into wide widths and sold as clothing, rather than being made into kimonos. Some skirt fabrics are pleated and have been cut to fit. This is a great product for those whose hobby is making handmade clothes. The exhibition contents were good, and I was able to see various products in person at the shop, which was a great learning experience, and I enjoyed it more than I expected! (Original) 資料館は縮小して1階のみ開館しています。それでもなかなか楽しめました。織物、染物に関心のある方には特にオススメです。 染め織りに関する博物館、資料館は全国に数多ありますが、山形では本場の紅花染めが見られるので、テンション上がります(*´v`*) ショップでは、米沢織の着尺反物、ストール、小物に加え、洋服地も販売されています。桐生もそうですが、最近では、着物に仕立てる為の反物ではなく、広幅に織って服地として販売されているのを多く見かけるようになりました。中には、スカート生地としてプリーツ加工済・着分カット済といったものまであります。 ハンドメイドで服を作るのが趣味という方には非常〜にありがたい商品ですね。 展示内容も良いし、ショップでも様々な商品を直に見ることができ、とても勉強になったし、予想以上に楽しめました!

(Translated by Google) You can try your hand at weaving for free. You cannot take it home. The Yonezawa Ori Museum has been closed because the building is so old that it is no longer possible to go up to the second floor, but there are some panel exhibits on the first floor. Yonezawa-ori products were available at very reasonable prices, and I bought neckties and obi. (Original) 手織り体験が無料でできます。持ち帰りはできません。 建物が老朽化して、2階に上れなくなったそうで、米沢織の資料館は閉鎖されてしまっていましたが、多少のパネル展示は1階にあります。 米沢織の製品がとてもリーズナブルに買え、ネクタイや帯を買い求めました。

The Fujishiro Seiji Museum features an impressive display of "Kiri-e" cut-out art, showcasing silhouettes and stained-glass windows set in a lush environment. The museum houses the works of artist Seiji Fujishiro, who creates stunning shadow paintings known as "kage-e." Visitors can view his initial pieces to more recent work related to Japan's 2011 earthquake.
I was in Nasu Highland on 1 March, and one of my travel buddies recommended visiting this art museum. The entrance fee was ¥2000 per pax, and you are not allowed to take photographs inside the exhibition hall. I now strongly recommend visiting this art misum after seeing it.

The place was worth seeing . I visited the museum of seiji fujishiro yesterday. Seiji fujishiro is an artist who makes the painting with cut papers and shadow. It is called kage-e. Kage means shadow , e means painting. He is 92 year old and still working as a artist. You can see his initial paintings to latest painting related earth quick happed 2011 in japan.

Mountain peak

Mount Azuma-kofuji is a popular 1,705-meter-high mountain in Fukushima known for its central crater and stunning panoramic views. Every spring, as the snow melts, it leaves behind the shape of a giant white rabbit on the mountainside, signaling the start of the farming season. The mountain's appealing symmetry and soft conical shape earned it the name Kofuji, meaning 'little Fuji'.
Check the best time for autumn leaves, and you may want to visit around noon where the fog and clouds clear up. The trek up to and around the volcano is a bit difficult, assess your physical ability before attempting the hike.

Parked at the bottom of the crater and walked up, around and back down took us around 1.5 hours for a casual hike. Parking fee was Y500. Totally worth it for stunning views from the top of the crater.

While in Fukushima, I was recommended to head up mount Azuma-kofuji to enjoy the view. So come the morning, I begin my ascent and instantly was met with fantastic views as I Drove up. Each 300 meters was another great photo spot and view of the area below. Once I reached the resting area at the top, I was greeted with more great views and a fun souvenir shop that second as an educational building. It was a great experience visiting but next time I will need to prepare as the sulfur smell from the active funnels was everywhere below the summit.

So beautiful!!!! There’s paid parking that cost 500 yen for the day. The drive up was gorgeous and once you get there, make sure you climb the steps up to the crater and walk all around the rim. It’s a spectacular view and a once in a lifetime experience that shouldn’t be missed. There is a restaurant and gift shop inside the main building along with toilets both inside and out. We found it easier to go up the left side of the crater and come down the right side and the slope on the right is milder.

This sake museum is housed in a wonderful old building which was itself a sake brewery before Toko took on the responsibility for renovating it. So glad that they preserved it! It's worth checking if a guide is available to get the most out of your visit but you can also follow along with the English explanations. The exhibition of old merchant equipment and reconstructions of traditional rooms are really interesting and don't miss out on the lonely garden. It's best not to drive if visiting here so that you can do some sake sampling. Toko's sake is very high quality and, with a variety of types to choose from, you are sure to find one that you like.

Totally worth the money. Excellent sake making displays as well as the rooms and the garden. Interesting history on the Wagu beef cattle raised locally. Sake tasting was fun, but of course I would like bigger portions, and who wouldn't? LOL. The young woman at the tasting room made a excellent recommendation to a upscale beef restaurant that was totally a great experience and reasonable priced lunch.

As a sake lover, if you are traveling Yamagata and stopping by Yonezawa, give Toko Sake Museum a visit. Toko, as one of the oldest sake breweries in Japan, produces some of the nicest sake in the market. Here, not only can you visit the museum to learn about part of the history of sake, you can also taste different sakes by Kojima Sohonten: from the brewery execlusive bottles, to the very premium top-of-the-line execellence. It is a must-visit for sake enthusiasts visit Yonezawa.

Often referred to as the "department store of shrines," it houses numerous deities under its impressive thatched roof. The shrine features a large temple bell and even has a museum showcasing its cultural heritage.
A fairly unique shrine with traditional straw roof, walk-through chime tunnels with mist, super intricate wood carvings, and a cool staircase leading up to it. If you can find all 3 rabbits in the wood carving, you'll be lucky. Definitely recommended to visit if you're in the area.

Sights & Landmarks

Rinsenji Temple, also known as Kasugayama Rinsenji, serves as the ancestral temple for the Uesugi family. This Buddhist temple houses various tombs, including those of Sentoin, the older sister of Uesugi Kenshin; Otoyo no Kata, Uesugi Yozan's concubine; and Naoe Kanetsugu. These individuals have gained prominence through their depiction in NHK's Taiga drama "Tenchijin".
(Translated by Google) This Soto Zen temple was originally located in Takada, Echigo. The temple was founded by the 11th Soto Zen master, the Imperially-given Soyu Daiko Zen master Don'ei Eo, descended from the founder of the Soto sect, Dogen, who invited his original master, the Great Abbot Isshu Shoi, to be a monk. The temple's name, "Rinsenji," comes from Lord Nagao Shigekage's posthumous Buddhist name, "Rinsenjidono Jitsukei Shoshin Daikoji." When Lord Uesugi Kenshin inherited the Uesugi clan, he invited the Uesugi clan's patron deity, Kasuga Myojin of Nara, to be enshrined there, and the mountain name was given the name "Kasugayama." Here, from the age of 7 to 14, Lord Kenshin underwent the strict teachings of the renowned monk Tenshitsu Koiku. During the reign of the second lord, Lord Kagekatsu, the Uesugi clan was transferred to Yonezawa via Aizu. It then moved to its current location in Yonezawa in 1617. (Original) 元は越後高田にあった曹洞宗の禅寺です。 曹洞宗開祖道元禅師から下って11代目の勅特賜 宗猷大光禅師 曇英慧應大和尚が、本師である一州正伊大和尚を勧請し、開山されました。 長尾重景公の法名「林泉寺殿實渓正眞大居士」から、寺号を『林泉寺』と定められました。 上杉謙信公が上杉氏を相続された時に、上杉家の氏神である奈良の春日明神を勧請し、山号を『春日山』としました。 ここで謙信公は名僧・天室光育の厳しい教えのもと、7~14歳までを過ごしました。 2代景勝公の折に上杉氏は、会津を経て米沢移封となりました。その後1617年に、米沢の現在地に移りました。

(Translated by Google) This is the family temple of the Uesugi family. There are graves of the feudal lord's wives and senior vassals, including Lord Kanetsugu Naoe. Kasugayama Rinsen-ji Temple was founded in 1496 by Uesugi Kenshin's grandfather, Nagao Yoshikage, at the foot of Kasugayama Castle to mourn his father's body, and it is said that it was moved to Aizu and Yonezawa following the transfer of the Uesugi clan. By paying the admission fee, you can enter the main hall and the treasure hall. There, a kind older man will actively talk to you and tell you about various pieces of history if you ask. Although the treasure museum was not large in scale, it displayed interesting materials such as handwritten letters from the feudal lord. (Original) 上杉家の菩提寺です。 藩主の奥方や、直江兼続公を含む重臣たちのお墓があります。 春日山林泉寺は上杉謙信公の祖父・長尾能景公が父の菩提を弔うため1496年に春日山城の麓に開基したお寺で、上杉氏の移封に従う形で会津、米沢に移ってきたそうです。 拝観料を納めることで本堂と宝物殿に入ることができます。 そこでは親切な年配の係の男性が積極的に声をかけてくれて、お願いすれば色々な歴史を教えてくれます。 宝物館は規模こそ大きくありませんが、藩主の直筆の手紙など興味深い資料が展示されていました。

There are many graves related to the Uesugi family. The graves of the Uesugi family and their retainers are designated as a prefectural cultural property (historic site). It seems that the main hall is closed for tours in the winter, and the grounds were very quiet.

(Translated by Google) This temple was originally built in 1496 at the foot of Kasugayama Castle in Echigo (present-day Joetsu City, Niigata Prefecture). It was founded by Nagao Yoshikage (deputy governor of Echigo), grandfather of Nagao Kagetora (later Uesugi Kenshin), on the 17th anniversary of his father, Shigekage, as a family temple for generations of the Nagao clan. After the Uesugi clan took power, Rinsen-ji Temple was moved to Yonezawa during the reign of the second Uesugi, Kagekatsu. Since then, it has remained highly revered by the Nagao and Uesugi families to this day. The temple grounds are home to the graves of generations of Uesugi wives and children, as well as the tombs of Naoe Kanetsugu and his wife (prefecturally designated), Takeda Nobumasa (the sixth son of Shingen, prefecturally designated), and other notable figures, including senior Uesugi vassals, gunsmiths, and scholars. The garden, known as one of Yonezawa's three most famous gardens, and the temple gate associated with the famous chief retainer Takemata Totsuna, all speak volumes of the temple's history. Within the temple, numerous calligraphy works, including the original writings of the founder Zen master, as well as handwritings by Kenshin, Kagekatsu, Yozan, and Naoe Kanetsugu, as well as numerous temple treasures, are carefully preserved and passed down. (Original) 当寺は、明応5年(1496)に越後の春日山城(今の新潟県上越市)のふもとに建てられたのがはじまりです。長尾景虎公(後の上杉謙信)の祖父 長尾能景公(越後守護代)がその父 重景公の17回忌にあたり、長尾家代々の菩提所として創建したものです。 上杉となってから二代目景勝公のとき、林泉寺も米沢に移りました。以来、長尾・上杉家からたいへん尊崇されて今日に及んでいます。 境内には上杉氏代々の奥方、子女をはじめ、直江兼続夫妻の墓(県指定)、武田信清の墓(信玄公六男 県指定)、その他上杉家重臣、鉄砲師、学者など著名人のお墓や米沢三大名園といわれた庭園、名家老 竹俣当綱ゆかりの山門などが多くの歴史を語りかけています。 寺内には開山禅師の真筆、謙信公・景勝公・鷹山公・直江兼続の直筆など数多くの墨迹や数々の寺宝が大切に保存伝承されています。

By the way, it was about a 30-minute walk from where the Uesugi Shrine and museums are located. If you prefer public transportation, it may be a bit hectic to get around in a limited amount of time, but I definitely recommend you visit.

Tengendai Kogen is a magnificent resort hotel with three lift stops. The snow on the upper two stops is more cushioned, providing an optimal skiing experience. However, the resort may not be ideal for beginners as the slopes following the lifts are suited for intermediate level skiers and above. Renting full wear and equipment at Tengendai Kogen costs 5,600 units of currency, while a one-day lift pass is available for 4,990 units of currency.
I visited this hotel in March, 2023 to use its bathing facility to freshen up after a day of skiing. While the bathing facility was simple and was not a hot spring (as we were informed), it was perfect for a quick post-ski refresh and was very affordable at only 400 yen. We were perfectly refreshed for our journey back to Tokyo. Highly recommended to stop by after skiing at Tengendai!

Visitors can explore an impressive collection of armor, matchlocks, and other artifacts associated with famous Sengoku warlords such as Kenshin Uesugi, Kanetsugu Naoe, and Keiji Maeda. Photography is not allowed inside the facility, but the valuable items on display are truly captivating.
(Translated by Google) The armor reportedly worn by Keiji Maeda was magnificent. There are many other armors such as Uesugi Kenshin's armor, which is a must-see for history buffs. (Original) 前田慶次が所用したと伝えられる甲冑は見事でした 他にも上杉謙信の甲冑など多数あり歴史好きの方は必見です

If you are a fan of Samurai history it is well worth the visit. I would not take any long trips to see it. But if you are in this city take a look.

(Translated by Google) This was the only place I requested to go on our family trip. lol Kenshin's armor was incredibly stylish. You can't really appreciate the engraving details unless you see it in person. Maeda Keijiro's armor was lightweight and had a ninja-like appearance. It was also incredibly rare to see the armor of Uesugi Norimasa, who bestowed the Uesugi surname on young Kenshin, still known as Nagao. Honest samurai protect honest nobles, and honest nobles back honest samurai. The complementary relationship between Kenshin and Norimasa is deeply moving. The stone lantern, reminiscent of the Mannento Pagoda, seems to boast the military readiness and obedience of the Yonezawa Uesugi clan, even in the Reiwa era. (Original) 家族旅行で唯一自分が希望して行った場所です。笑 謙信公の甲冑がめちゃくちゃおしゃれでした。やはり実物を見ないと彫金のディテールなどはわかりません。前田慶次郎の甲冑はやっぱり忍の出らしい見た目に軽量なものでした。 若き日のまだ長尾だった謙信公に上杉姓を与えた上杉憲政の甲冑を見れたのも、すごく貴重。まともな武家が真っ当な公家を守り、真っ当な公家がまともな武家の後ろ盾をする。謙信と憲政の相補関係。感慨深い。 万年塔を彷彿とさせる石灯篭。令和になっても米沢上杉の武備恭順を誇っているよう。

(Translated by Google) Adults are 400 yen. I visited around noon on a weekday, and there were no other customers, so I was able to enjoy the tour in peace. I had the impression that it was a museum run by an individual, but when I looked into it later, I discovered that it started out as a private museum that displays the materials that the first director, Zensuke Miyasaka, spent his life collecting. There are many armors on display, including those of Uesugi Kenshin, Kagekatsu, and Naoe Kanetsugu, but the chief among them is the armor of Maeda Keiji. The bright red armor is really cool. When I visited, a special exhibition called ``The Uesugi Vassals' Armor Exhibition'' was being held, and the armor of famous vassals such as Onikojima Yataro was also on display. There are also exhibits such as folding screens and matchlock guns. At first, I didn't include it in my travel plans as I didn't even know about the museum's existence, but I happened to see a poster of it at Yonezawa Station and decided to visit it. As a result, it was a very correct answer. I am humbled by the enthusiasm of the first director, who personally amassed so many items. (Original) 大人400円です。 平日のお昼頃に伺いましたが、他に客はおらず落ち着いて見学することができました。 個人の運営する資料館の印象を受けましたが、後ほど調べてみると、初代館長・宮坂善助氏が生涯をかけて収集した資料を展示する私設博物館がその始まりだそうです。 上杉謙信公、景勝公、直江兼続公など多くの甲冑を展示してありますが、その筆頭は前田慶次公の甲冑でした。真っ赤な甲冑が本当に格好良いです。 私が訪れた際は「上杉家臣団の甲冑展」という企画展を実施しており、鬼小島弥太郎など有名家臣の甲冑も展示してありました。 その他、屏風や火縄銃などの展示もあります。 当初はその存在も知らない博物館で旅行計画に入れていませんでしたが、米沢駅でたまたまポスターを見かけて訪れてみました。結果、大正解でした。 個人でここまでの収蔵品を集めた初代館長の熱意には頭が下がる思いです。

(Translated by Google) About 5 minutes walk from the station. Admission fee: 400 yen The museum is a small museum that takes about 10 seconds to walk straight inside. However, it was quite a sight to behold. There are many cultural properties designated by Yamagata Prefecture. The armor of Kagekatsu Uesugi, Kanetsugu Naoe, and Keiji Maeda are real pieces, so they may be more valuable than those displayed at Dengoku no Mori (Uesugi Museum, Yonezawa City). I am humbled that it was collected by an individual. Of course, photography is prohibited inside the museum. I purchased an illustrated catalog (1,600 yen) and a clear file (300 yen) as a commemorative gift. (Original) 駅から歩いて5分程度。入館料400円 館内は、まっすぐ歩けば10秒ほどの小さい博物館。 しかしながら、なかなかの見ごたえでした。 山形県指定文化財がたくさんあります。 上杉景勝、直江兼続、前田慶治の甲冑など実物ですから、もしかしたら伝国の杜(米沢市上杉博物館)に飾られているものより貴重なのかもしれません。 個人で収集したということですから頭が下がります。 館内は当然写真撮影禁止です。図録(1600円)とクリアファイル(300円)を記念に購入しました。

(Translated by Google) I used it as one of the passes to see Yonezawa. The old man is friendly and will answer any questions you have. There were so many valuable armors that unfortunately photography was not allowed inside the museum. There are also many other things to see, including matchlock guns handed down in the Uesugi family. It takes about 45 minutes to watch very carefully. (Original) 米沢観るパスの一つとして利用しました。おじさん気さくで、質問したら答えてくれます。館内は撮影禁止なのが残念なくらい、貴重な甲冑がたくさんありました。他にも上杉家に伝わる火縄銃などもあり見どころたくさん。とてもじっくり見て45分くらいです。

(Translated by Google) If you want to see armor and matchlock guns, this is the place. There are many cultural properties designated by the prefecture. There is an entrance fee of 400 yen, and there is a reception desk, and the museum is divided into the first exhibition hall, where armor and other items are displayed, and the second exhibition hall, where matchlock guns and other items are displayed. The Uesugi family's matchlock gun was extremely thick (almost like a bazooka), and it was very strong. (Original) 甲冑と火縄銃を見たいならココです。 県指定文化財が多数あります。 入館料400円で、受付があり、甲冑などが展示されている第1展示場と、火縄銃などが展示されている第2展示場に別れています。 上杉家の火縄銃は極太(ほぼバズーカ)だったんですね、これは強い。

(Translated by Google) 2020-2021 season I went skating a couple of times. It is a ski resort suitable for families as it is located along the main road and has excellent access. If you purchase a parent-child ticket, you can purchase a one-day ticket for the price of a four-hour ticket, which is an exceptional offer. There is only one pair lift. When you get off, you will see a wide single barn. The ups and downs make it enjoyable for intermediate and advanced skiers, and the wide turns are perfect for beginners to practice. The price, course, and accessibility are very good, but the parking lots are so scattered that it's hard to find them. With this, I lost one ☆. I was able to find about 4 parking lots, but if you park far away, it's quite a difficult walk. Still, even if there is a problem with parking, it's still a great value for money, so I'd like to go again next season. (Original) 2020-2021シーズン 2回ほど滑りに行きました。幹線道路沿いにあるためアクセス抜群で、ファミリーで行くのに適したスキー場です。親子券で購入すると4時間券程度の値段で1日券が購入できるという破格の設定があります。 リフトはペアリフトが一本。降りると広い1枚バーンが広がります。起伏があるので、中上級者でも楽しめるし、大回りで滑れば初心者の練習にも最適です。 値段・コース・アクセスの良さはとても良いんですが、いかんせん駐車場が点在しすぎててわかりずらい。これで☆一つ減ってしまいました。駐車場は4箇所ほど確認できましたが、遠くに停めてしまうと結構歩くのキツイんですよね。 それでも、駐車場の問題があっても有り余るコスパの良さなので、来シーズンも行ってみたいと思います。

(Translated by Google) Currently, there are many peonies and irises in bloom as a flower park. Maybe the locals are taking care of it. There are no people touring, so you can enjoy the view at your leisure. As it is a ski resort, the slopes are quite steep, but there are many different types and it was worth seeing for me. However, there are some flowers that are withering or falling. (Original) 現在、花公園として芍薬や菖蒲などがたくさん咲いています。 多分地元の方が手入れされているのかもしれません。 見学している方がいなく、ゆっくりみれます。 スキー場だけあってわりと急斜面ですが種類があって私としては見応えがありました。 ただ、枯れたり散ったりしている花があります。

(Translated by Google) The ski resort itself was fine, but the restaurant was horrible. We ordered pizza and waited for nearly 30 minutes, but the pizza didn't arrive and the pizza was given to the people who ordered after us. I thought it was strange so I asked about it and was told that it was a mistake. Then the same thing happened again. They said it would be baked in 10 minutes, but there was no sign of it being baked, so they closed the reception. I would like a refund Customer service is the worst. I'll never go again. (Original) スキー場自体はいいのですが食堂は最低でした。ピザを頼んで30分近く待ったのですがピザはこず、私たちの後に頼んだ人達にピザが渡りました。おかしいなと思い聞いてみたところ間違ったということでした。その後また同じことが起こりました。10分後に焼き上がりますと言っていたのですが焼いている様子はなく、受け付けを閉めました。返金はしてもらいましだが 接客は最低です。もう一生行きません。

(Translated by Google) It seems that an NPO corporation is somehow managing it. There is only one lift, but rentals and lift tickets are very cheap, so you can go to the hot springs while you're there, or it's also recommended for children's first time skiing. However, the number of rentals is limited, so we recommend that you go early. I think they also have sleds for rent, so it might be a good idea to go sledding. (Original) NPO法人がなんとか運営している状況らしいです。リフトは一本しかありませんが、レンタル激安リフト券激安ですので温泉ついでに行ってもよし、子供の初スキーにもおすすめです。ただしレンタルの数量が限られてますので早めに行くことをおすすめします。貸しソリもあったと思うのでソリ遊びでもいいかも

(Translated by Google) The clerk's attitude is bad Lift tickets for preschoolers were supposed to be free, but they took money from them. The information on the website is outdated, so I was forced to pay more for rental skis and lifts than the published information. I negotiated directly with the managing director and told him about improvements to customer service and the content of the website. We also complained to Yonezawa City Hall, which is responsible for the management, but we received no response. (Original) 店員の態度が悪い 未就学児のリフト代は無料のはずなのにお金取られた ホームページは古い情報との事でレンタルスキーやリフト代も公開している情報より高く支払わされた。管理している会長さんに直接交渉し接客態度やホームページの内容などの改善を伝えました。 管理を委託している米沢市役所にも抗議しましたが、返信がありませんでした。

(Translated by Google) The Sankakan ruins were the residence of Uesugi Takayama, who retired at the age of 35. Currently, a garden and other facilities have been maintained, and a splendid monument has been erected that reads, ``If something is done, it will happen if it is done, and if it doesn't happen, it's because of people who didn't do it.'' The name Kasumi-kan symbolizes eating haze, and we can get a glimpse of the humanity of Lord Takayama, who was a leader of the clan but never boasted and strived to be frugal and frugal. It is within walking distance from Uesugi Shrine, so if you want to deepen your knowledge about Takayama, we recommend that you stop by here as well.

There are paid seats (2000 yen with reserved seats and souvenirs) and free seats.

(Translated by Google) There were no Sengoku goods for sale, and there were stalls and restrooms and smoking areas all in one place.I went to ask for same-day ticket sales for the paid seats, but I stayed there because I was told there was a waiting list for cancellations, but the directions were vague and I decided it was a waste of time, so I dropped out. Free spectator seats are sufficient, but we recommend seating on the aisle side for easy access. You can also reserve a spot, and the weight is easy to find if you go towards the toilet. It starts at 14:00, but you can also see the procession and rehearsal before that.

(Translated by Google) There is a grave of Kanto Kanrei Norimasa Uesugi. He was buried at Shoyo-ji Temple in Echigo, but seems to have been reburied at Shoyo-ji Temple in Yonezawa with the relocation. This temple itself was relocated from Joetsu City, Niigata Prefecture to Yonezawa. During the Sasano Kannon First Seventeen Temple Festival, there are stalls with Sasano Itto carvings set up on the grounds. (Original) 関東管領上杉憲政の墓がある。 越後の照陽寺に埋葬されましたが、移封とともに米沢の照陽寺に改葬されたようです。 このお寺自体が新潟県上越市から米沢に移設されたお寺だそうです。 笹野観音初十七堂祭の際は境内に笹野一刀彫の露店がたつようです。

Komadome Falls Observation Point offers a stunning view of the powerful waterfall cascading down the Yosasagawa River cliff. The observation facility provides a picturesque setting, especially during the autumn leaves season. Visitors can enjoy the sight of the falls from a distance and may even explore a nature trail for hiking opportunities. The surrounding mountains add to the scenic beauty, making it an ideal stop for nature enthusiasts.
Great view from the platform! Was a great precursor to Kita onsen. Next year we will try to hike to the waterfall directly!

Actually it was snowy when we plan to go there so we are not prepared to go down that and thats the reason we haven't seen the falls itself but we tried.

(Translated by Google) We visited at 9am in early November. The autumn leaves were starting to fall. The road is wide, making it easy to get there by car. Parking is available. According to locals, the sun isn't high in the sky at this time of year, so the basin below the falls is always in shadow. They also said that the trees around the observation deck were cut down in late October, making it easier to see the falls. (Original) 十一月初旬九時訪問。紅葉は散り始めかな? 道が広めで車で行きやすいです。駐車場あり。 地元の人曰くこの時期は太陽が高くないので滝壺は常に影がかかるとのことでした。あと10月下旬に展望台周辺の木を伐採して滝が見やすくなったと。

Kinoene Daikokuten, a Buddhist temple known for its serene atmosphere, has captivated visitors with its grandeur and spiritual aura. The temple's corridors are adorned with flickering candlelight, casting a gentle glow upon the exquisite artworks created by members of the Gourd Lamp Lovers Club. One cannot help but be entranced by the tranquil expression on the face of the revered Sanzon statue, which seems to transcend time itself.
(Translated by Google) Continuing from last year, I went to worship. The large Daikokuten in front of you is a sight to behold. The main hall is very spacious and you can relax. I was very happy to receive the Ryujin-sama and a limited edition Goshuin seal for the second year in a row. Each one is handwritten, but it's amazing.

(Translated by Google) Since it was a weekday, Wednesday, there were no other people there, so I was able to look around at my own pace. I also got a great view of the scenery. I got a temple stamp! I also tried making my own arm prayer beads without making a reservation. It was a really good memory. But the best part was when I had a prayer after making my arm prayer beads, and the sound of the prayer was soothing and added to the mysticism. I would like to visit again. (Original) 平日の水曜日ということもあり ほかの方はいなかったのでゆっくりと見れました。また景色も一望できてなかなか良かったです。 御朱印もゲット!また予約無しで腕念珠づくりも体験してきました。本当にいい思い出作りになりました。 でも一番良かったのは腕念珠を作ったあとにご祈祷してもろいましたが その声がいい心地で神秘性が増しました。またご参拝したいと思います。

I had notified the day before at 9 p.m., if that was possible, and we received a response around 8 a.m. that she would be waiting for us and that she would do her best to speak English. The experience was superb! The lady took all her time to explain each stone to us and how to do it. After making, the monk came to bless our bracelets through a ceremony! Incredible experience! I recommend everyone to go visit them! Ps: There is a monkey in the last photo! (Original) Sugoi ! Nous avons choisi de faire l’activité « confection de bracelet » avec ma copine.

(Translated by Google) Get off the car from Hoju-no-Yu, which is a little ahead of you, and walk up the mountain road a little and you will see it. By chance, there were no visitors, but you can give away goshuin, goku, lucky charms, etc. Also, it was sold out, but is it an ema with a limited design of Onsen Musume Komachi Onogawa? It seems that there are also bills. There is also a limited edition panel of nun costumes, so I think it would be a good idea to go see them.

(Translated by Google) I saw it on the internet and saw that it was open to the public, so I decided to visit it for the first time! ! I couldn't go on the special day that comes around once every 60 days, but since the opening of the secret Buddha statue will be completed at the end of this month, I visited on a normal day! ! Using the navigation system, I parked my car near the foot of the hot spring area, walked up the approach, and saw the main hall! ! It was on a hill and had a great view and was beautiful! I had the chief priest take care of the formalities, and while I was visiting the hidden Buddha, I had all of the goshuin handwritten, including the regular goshuin, the special goshuin (the one with golden characters), and the goshuin that will be completed when I visit the shrine again next year! ! After visiting the shrine, I was glad to see the stamps being written! ! (^o^)/ I think it would be difficult to draw a picture of a dragon with a brush, but I thought it was amazing to see how smooth it was! ! (^-^)/ If I visited the shrine at night, I would get a special goshuin stamp with silver letters, but since the person was coming from far away, I gave up...(>_<) I will visit again next year! ! (^-^)/ The other day...I was able to safely visit the shrine this year and receive a special Goshuin seal! ! Also, it was great to be able to hand-write this year's special Goshuin seal!

Park
Nature & Parks
Naoetsutsumi Park, known for its iconic "love" helmet, was constructed by the renowned Kanetsugu Naoe as part of a hydraulic engineering project under the patronage of feudal lord Ieyasu Tokugawa. In this endeavor, Uesugi Kagekatsu, another influential figure, reduced the seal from 1.2 million stones in Aizu to 300,000 in Yonezawa.
(Translated by Google) The embankment (nozura-zumi) from the time of Lord Naoe Kanetsugu still remains. The riverbed has been turned into a park, and the grass is neatly cut and maintained. There is a parking lot, and it is also a great course for walking dogs. If you want to relax and gaze out at the river, this is a good place to rest. It is moving to think that Lord Naoe Kanetsugu also fought hard in this place. If you are a fan of the Sengoku period, it is worth stopping by here. (Original) 直江兼続公時代の堤防(野面積み)が今でも残されています。河川敷が公園となっており、草もきちんと刈られていて管理されています。駐車場もあり、犬の散歩コースとしても最適です。ぼーっと川を眺めたい時はここで休むといいです。直江兼続公もこの場所で奮闘していたのだと思うと感慨深い気持ちになります。戦国時代が好きな人はここに立ち寄ってみると良いでしょう。

(Translated by Google) My family has been using it for imoni parties and children's play areas for a long time. It's been a while since I've had an imoni party, BBQ, and petit camp. I love the spacious surroundings of the park, where I can see my favorite Mt. Azuma and feel liberated. Parking lots, promenades, pavilions, water holes, and restrooms are located in three long parks: north, center, and south. In particular, the central parking lot is used as a rest area during work. However, the toilets are old and difficult to use, and there are steps to get down from the park to the embankment site, making it inconvenient. I have no choice. In the past, Naoe Kanetsugu constructed a large-scale embankment to control the flooding of the Mogami River. There are some children's play equipment and vending machines in the center, so it's recommended for a walk. (Original) 家族で昔から芋煮会や子供の遊び場に利用してます。久しぶりに芋煮会、BBQ、プチキャンプに来ました。大好きな吾妻山が見える解放感溢れる広い公園周辺が気に入ってます。 駐車場、遊歩道、東屋、水場、トイレが北、中央、南部と三カ所長い公園にそれぞれ配置されてます。 特に中央の駐車場は仕事途中の休憩場所として利用されます。 ただトイレが古く使いにくい、公園から堤防敷地に降りるのに段差があり不便を感じます。しかたありませんが。かつて昔直江兼続が暴れ最上川の氾濫をなんとか治めるため大工事した堤防が二重に施した位ですからね。 中央部には子供の遊具が少し、自販機もあるので散歩にはオススメです。

(Translated by Google) 2023.05.20 The parking lot is wide and easy to park on your way to your accommodation! My husband stopped by to use the restroom. I saw many local people playing in the park, so I thought it was a park loved by the locals. It was only later that I learned that it was an embankment upstream of the Mogami River, one of the flood control projects built by Kanetsugu Naoe. What's more, I thought it was a nice-looking stone embankment, but I was surprised to find out that it was actually the stone embankment with lots of grass growing in front of it. (Original) 2023.05.20 宿泊先に向かう途中、駐車場が広く止めやすい!と主人がトイレの利用で立ち寄りました。 地元の皆さんが公園で遊んだりしていたので、地元に愛されている公園なのだと思いました。 直江兼続が造り上げた治水事業の1つ最上川上流の防堤だと知ったのは後になってから。しかも見映えの良い石堤がそうだと思ったら、そうではなくてその手前にある草がいっぱい生えている石堤の方だというのにビックリです。

Ski resort
Tengendaikogen Ski Area, located near Shirabu Onsen in the Yonezawa area, offers a high-altitude skiing experience with excellent snow quality. The wide slopes cater to intermediate skiers and provide comfortable skiing opportunities. Visitors can enjoy panoramic views of Yamagata, including the Asahi Mountain Range and Mt. Gassan. Even during spring, the quality of snow remains ideal for skiing. However, strong winds may affect operations at the upper lift.
I visited Tengendai Ski Area in early March, 2023. Despite the unusually warm weather for the time of year (15 degrees Celsius in Yonezawa city), we were still able to enjoy a moderate cover of powder snow up at Tengendai. Truly powder paradise! We also had the place mostly to ourselves on a Tuesday. Facilities are simple with three lifts and two restaurants, but the slopes are wide and have enough variation to enjoy a full day of skiing. The ski area is also very easy to access on the ropeway and ski pass + rentals can be purchased easily and quickly without reservation. Staff are also very friendly - the staff in the restaurant left us a welcome note with our food, and one of the ski instructors ended up personally driving us back to Yonezawa station (40min) at the end of the day! Highly recommend!

Famous for its 100% powder snow in the winter. The ski season can last until the end of April, possibly start of May. Lots of Yonezawa locals use this resort so it feels friendly. A very good and well established ski school with friendly teachers. If you get a Level 1 SAJ grading, your name can go on a board at the bottom gondola station.

(Translated by Google) Today was my first debut on this slope, and I was extremely lucky to have perfect conditions. As you would expect from a high altitude, the snow quality is excellent, and each barn is spacious and well-maintained! Besides, the group of monsters on the frost-covered trees was a sight to behold🤩 Of course, Zao may be more amazing, but being able to see such a spectacular view with a one-day ticket of ¥4,400 (senior) is just amazing (Zao is inbound price) And I can't reach it anymore 😭). There are a lot of things that can go wrong, such as the parking lot being small and separated at the bottom of the slope, and the lifts being slow for long periods of time in pairs, but if you hit such favorable conditions on your first visit, I don't feel like deducting points at all. No. I would like to check out the ski slope information on Weather News and go again on a day with favorable conditions. (Original) このゲレンデは今日が初デビューですが、最高のコンディションに当たり超々ラッキーでした。さすが標高が高いだけあって雪質は最高だし、各バーンは広めで整備も完璧!それになんと言っても樹氷のモンスター群は圧巻でした🤩 そりゃ蔵王の方が凄いのかもしれませんが、1日券¥4,400(シニア)でこんな絶景が観れるなんて最高過ぎます(蔵王はインバウンド価格で私にはもう手が届きません😭)。駐車場が小さく坂の下に分かれているとか、リフトが低速のペアで乗っている時間が長いとか、突っ込みどころは色々あるのですが、初訪問でこんな好条件に当たれば、全く減点する気になれません。ウエザーニュースのゲレンデ情報を視て好条件の日にまた行ってみたいと思います。

(Translated by Google) The quality of the snow is much better than Nekoma in Fukushima Prefecture, and even though I usually only ride on wet snow, the board runs so smoothly that I feel like I'm getting better at sliding. You can enjoy it all day long by carving in the well-maintained areas, flying around the edges and undulations, and creating style. I think the Yunohira course, which is said to be used for descending the mountain, is a style dojo. I want to skate here in a cool and tasteful way. The problem is the parking lot, and how close to the gondola station can I park my car? The further you move away from the gondola station, the steeper the slope you will have to climb, making it difficult to climb in ski boots and too harsh for families with children. (Original) 福島県のネコマよりも雪質が抜群に良く、普段湿雪ばかりの自分には滑りが上手くなった錯覚に陥るくらい板が走ります。整備した場所ではカービングし、端パウや起伏で飛んだりスタイルだしたりと、1日飽きずに楽しめます。下山に使うと言われている湯ノ平コースはスタイル道場だと思います。ここをカッコ良くセンス良く滑りたいと思ってしまいます。 難点は、やはり駐車場問題で、いかにゴンドラ駅近くに車を停められるか。ゴンドラ駅から離れたら離れただけ急坂を登ることになり、スキーブーツではしんどいことになりますし、子連れには過酷過ぎます。

(Translated by Google) It snowed over 100 cm two days ago, and on that day it was only a wind pack, compacted and hard powder. Upper ski resort star 3 There are three vertical lifts, but the slopes are the same without any undulations, and there are some waves. Ropeway descent course 5 stars Both Sawa-one and Sawa-one are interesting. The view was good. The lifts are slow due to the large number of climbers, and often stop due to the wind. There are people who are good at it and people who aren't.

(Translated by Google) This is a ski resort whose slopes extend north in a straight line to Mt. Nishi-Azuma, the highest peak in the Azuma Mountain Range. Surprisingly, Tengendai Ski Resort is the only ski resort on the southern border between Yamagata and Fukushima prefectures that has a northern slope. Although it is easy to access from Yonezawa city, it has a somewhat local feel as Zao Onsen ski resort is located to the north. It has a simple structure, with a ropeway access from the foot of the mountain and three vertical lifts, and the course is vertically long to follow the lifts. Even if you are skating in a group, it will be difficult to get separated, and even if you do get separated, you will be able to quickly regroup. Although it is not a particularly high ski resort at an altitude of about 1,800m, it is attractive because it is inland, so the temperature is low, and it has one of the highest snowfalls of any ski resort in Japan, with over 750cm of snowfall this season. If you visit on a snowy day during the high season, skis with a center diameter of less than 100mm will be hard to find. You should come prepared with proper equipment and powder running techniques. If you're lucky, you might even see diamond dust. It is also a famous place for snowy mountain climbing, so many mountaineers visit here. Please keep in mind that they will be driving slowly when getting on and off the lift. When encountering a climbing group, the lift will intermittently operate in waves, going from normal to low speed to normal to low speed. If you get motion sickness easily, don't forget to take motion sickness medicine. (Original) 吾妻連峰最高峰の西吾妻山に北へスッと一直線に斜面を伸ばしているスキー場です。意外にも山形県と福島県の南側の県境で北斜面を有しているのはこの天元台スキー場くらいです。米沢市内からアクセスしやすいながらも、北に行けば蔵王温泉スキー場があるためややローカルな印象を受けます。 麓からロープウェイで登り、リフトが縦に3つというシンプルな構成で、コースもリフトに沿うように縦長になっています。グループでも滑っていてもはぐれにくく、またはぐれてもすぐ合流することができるでしょう。 標高は1800mほどと特段高い位置にあるスキー場ではありませんが、内陸であるため気温が低いことと、今季積雪750cmを超えたように国内スキー場で屈指の降雪量が魅力的です。ハイシーズンに降雪日に訪れればセンター100mm以下のスキー板では埋まりに行くようなものでしょう。しっかりとした装備とパウダーランの技術を携えて臨むべきです。運が良ければダイヤモンドダストも見ることができるかもしれません。 雪山登山でも有名な場所なので登山家も多く訪れます。彼らがリフトを乗降車する際は低速運転になることを留意しましょう。登山グループと遭遇するとリフトは断続的に通常→低速→通常→低速という波状運転になります。酔い易い人は酔い止めを忘れずに。

Scenic spot
Shirabu Falls, located near Nishiya and just a brief hike away, is an unmissable natural attraction in the area. The trail leading to the falls can be slippery at times but not overly challenging, so it is advisable to wear sturdy footwear. During September, the path is adorned with vibrant wildflowers while the waterfall itself boasts a strong rush of water. With its picturesque setting still untouched by human intervention, Shirabu Falls attracts only a handful of visitors.
A short walk from the hot spring inns in Shirabu Onsen, this is a must-see if you visit. A new staircase was recently added to make it easier to access.
Paul W — Google review
Just a short hike from Nishiya, this waterfall is not to be missed if you're in the area. The trail is slippery in spots, not too difficult but sturdy shoes are recommended. Went in September and the path was lined with wildflowers and the waterfall had a powerful flow. Located in an unspoiled natural setting with very few other visitors.

(Translated by Google) It is said that the castle was built by Harumune Date and later maintained with stone walls by the Uesugi clan, but was abandoned after Sekigahara. It's not that high up from the main entrance at the foot of the mountain and can be climbed within 5 minutes. There are many deer and wild animals along the way, so you need to be careful. The castle ruins have well-remained stone walls, Masugata Koguchi, and the trenches that divide the walls, and the results of excavations are also posted on information boards. The castle area is well maintained to make it easy to tour, making it easy to understand the mountain castle of the Sengoku period. (Original) 伊達晴宗により築城されその後上杉氏により石垣で整備されたが関ヶ原以降廃城になったとされる城 麓の大手口からそんなに高さはなく5分もすれば登れる。途中鹿と遭遇したり野生動物が多いので用心する必要がある。 城跡は石垣や枡形虎口、郭を区画する堀切がよく残されており、発掘調査の結果も案内板に掲示さている。城域は見学しやすいようよく整備されており戦国時代の山城がわかりやすくなっている。

(Translated by Google) There are information boards numbered ① to ⑲ starting at the foot of the mountain, and if you follow the numbers, you can get the whole picture. The earthworks remain at the original height, giving a sense of realism. The plaza at the foot of the mountain is beautiful because the local landowner has taken care of its preservation. I think it is recommended for Yamashiro lovers. (Original) 麓から案内板が①〜⑲まであり、番号に沿って進んでいくと、全容が掴めます。 土塁とかが当時の高さで残っており、その高さにリアルさが伺えます。 現地の地主さんが場所の保全をしてくれてるので、麓の広場はキレイになってます。 山城好きにはオススメだと思います。

(Translated by Google) Tateyama Castle The castle where Date Masamune was born, a castle that has not been remodeled since it was abandoned by Hideyoshi and has a full Sengoku feel. There is plenty of parking available at the first lawn curve inside the castle, and there is a temporary toilet right next to it. As you go deeper into the grassy castle ruins at the foot of the mountain, you will find a pamphlet with a territory map in a small hut. Once you receive one ticket, you'll be off. You'll be climbing up a winding mountain path. The difference in elevation is about 60m. It's easy to understand with lots of explanatory signs along the way. We have Sengoku sets such as earthworks, horikiri, vertical moat, and Masugata Koguchi. At the back of Kuruwa 3 at the top, there is a narrow path to the left to the observation platform, be sure to go there. After that, it would be best to walk back along the riverside road on the earthworks of Horikiri. thank you for your hard work (Original) 館山城 伊達政宗が生まれた城、秀吉に廃城にされたので改造されていない戦国感たっぷりの城 駐車場は城内の最初の芝生の曲輪に大量に停められます、すぐ横に仮設トイレ 麓の芝生の城館跡地を奥に進むと小さな小屋に縄張り図のパンフレットがあります 1枚頂いたら出発です、つづら折りの山道を登ります、標高差は60m位あります 途中に説明看板大量で分かりやすいです 土塁、堀切、竪堀、枡形虎口など戦国セット揃ってます 最上部の曲輪3の奥、左に物見台への細道、是非行きましょう その後は川側の道で堀切の土塁の上を歩いたりしながら戻るのが良いでしょう お疲れ様でした

(Translated by Google) When I drove along Route 125 heading west from downtown Yonezawa, I ended up going too far because there was no information board. When I made a U-turn, there was a guide board in the eastbound lane. There is a signboard and you can park in front of the power plant. Although the shape of the mountain castle remains intact, this power plant is a shame as a building. The site is being maintained by the preservation society, and there is drinking water, walking sticks, and maps in the hut at the entrance. Thank you for your kindness. As per the guide, it will take about 10 minutes to reach the top. There are no stairs or handrails, but I think it's easy to walk. It is said to be a mountain castle about 300 meters high, but perhaps because the altitude of the flat land is already high, climbing the mountain was not difficult. I believe that the castle was built at the tip of the confluence of two rivers, in a location that was good for protection. I was surprised to hear that Kazutoyo Yamauchi came all the way here to inspect the land when the castle was destroyed by order of Toyotomi Hideyoshi. In the Middle Ages and the Sengoku period, places like this were used as bases, but in modern times they have not been used and have retained their original appearance for hundreds of years, which is strange. (Original) 車で125号線を米沢市街地から西方面に向かってゆきましたら、案内板が無くて行き過ぎてしまいました。Uターンすると、東向きの車線には案内板がありました。立て看板があり、発電所前に駐車できます。山城としてしっかり形が残っているのに、この発電所は建造物として残念です。跡地は保存会によって手入れされていて、登り口の小屋には飲料水とステッキ、地図があります。ご親切に感謝です。案内通り、頂上付近までは10分くらいで行けます。階段や手すりなどは作られていませんが、歩きやすいと思います。高さ300メートルほどの山城とのことですが、平地の標高がすでに高いのか、山登りは大変ではありませんでした。二つの川が合流する先端にあって、守りに良い立地に城(館)を作ったのだと思います。豊臣秀吉の命令による破城の際には、山内一豊が検地にここまで来たという話はびっくりでした。中世、戦国時代はこのような場所が拠点となったのに対して、現代では活用されずに数百年も当時の面影を残してくれていて、不思議に感じます。

(Translated by Google) Enter the alley from Route 121, cross the narrow bridge, and pass the power generation facility. There is a parking lot at the end. It is located at the confluence of two rivers, and the cliffs carved out by the rivers appear to be a natural fortress. In the past, there was a bridge at the end of the parking lot, and it seems that it was a major bridge. The I and II enclosures are vast, and the upper power generation facility is located to the east of the I enclosure. There is an earthwork and dry moat between I and II Kuruwa, and there is a square-shaped Koguchi to the north. Only the base of the stone remains. Between II and III Kuruwa, there is also an earthwork and a dry moat through which a culvert passes. After crossing the earthen bridge, there is also a deep trench on the outside of Kuruwa III. There is an observation deck with a shrine to the south of Kuruwa III, and you can see the cliffs to the south of the castle area.

Senshoin Temple, located in the heart of the city, is dedicated to Bishamonten and houses a stamp for visitors. The temple's name originates from a powerful saying associated with Bishamonten. While currently unable to visit the main hall, it was previously adorned with a striking "Bi" flag and an impressive statue of Bishamonten.

(Translated by Google) This is a temple of the Daigo sect of the Shingon sect located in Josai, Yonezawa City. Due to Uesugi Kenshin's devotion, it was made the main image of the flag that blessed the flag of Katana Hachi Bishamon. It is said that the temple was later renamed Sensho-in because of the belief that ``a thousand battles lead to a thousand victories'' as the temple was victorious in every battle. (Original) 米沢市城西にある真言宗醍醐派の寺院です。上杉謙信の帰依により刀八毘沙門の旗を加持する御旗本本尊とされました。後に戦の度に勝利を納めた事から「千度戦えば千度勝」の信念により千勝院と号したと伝えられます。

(Translated by Google) This temple is located on the way to the Uesugi family Mausoleum. The principal image is the sword eight Bishamonten. The door wasn't open, so I couldn't see what was inside. If you ask at the shrine office, you may be able to visit the shrine. Perhaps because Yonezawa is a place connected to the Uesugi family, it is a Bishamonten world with four temples dedicated to Bishamonten, including Sensho-in Temple. (Original) 上杉家御廟所に向かう途中にある寺院。ご本尊は刀八毘沙門天。扉があいて無かったので内部の様子はわかりませんでした。社務所で声を掛けたら参拝出来るのかもしれません。米沢は上杉家ゆかりの地だからなのか、ここ千勝院他、四か所も毘沙門天を祀る寺院が点在する毘沙門天ワールドな場所です

(Translated by Google) I use this gym to train. I used to live nearby, so I used to walk in the large park, and when my children were small, I used to play on the grass. It's still the same park, and it's a nice place that's well-maintained. The gym has all the strength-building equipment. There are three exercise bikes and two running machines for aerobic exercise. It's a little disappointing that there's no stepping machine. After driving, you can wash off your sweat in the shower room. There's only one hair dryer, but it's nice that they provide one. If you want to feel refreshed, I recommend the hot springs and sauna at the Longevity Center next to the park. (Original) トレーニングジムの利用でお世話になっています。以前は近くに住んでいたので、広い公園内をウオーキングしたり、子供が小さい頃は芝生で遊んだりしていました。今でも変わりない公園になっていて、手入れが行き届いたいい場所です。 トレーニングジムは筋力系の機器が一通り揃っていてます。有酸素運動機器はエアロバイクが3台とランニングマシンが2台です。ステッピングマシンが無いのが少し残念でした。 運転をしたあとはシャワールームで汗を流せます。ドライヤーも一つだが置いてくれてあるのも有難い。リッチにスッキリしたいのなら、公園隣りの長寿センターの温泉とサウナもお勧めです。

The principal image is a thousand-armed Kanzeon Bodhisattva statue. It is said that it was built in 1318 by a man named Nagai Hidemune, who was the land leader of Okitama. The zelkova tree in the temple grounds is said to be over 300 years old and has been designated as a natural monument by the city, making it quite an impressive sight.

(Translated by Google) Kamikosuge Kannon-do was founded in 1318 by Lord Oe Munehide (Hidemune Nagai, head of Okitama Nagaisho), a retainer of the Kamakura shogunate, and in 1830, the precincts were moved to its current location at the foot of the mountain, which is convenient for visiting. It is said that the princess of Uesugi Takazan was the first to visit Kannon-do, so it was designated as the number one temple in the Kannon sacred place. According to legend, a sacred camphor tree washed up from the river in the early Kamakura period was carved into a sacred tree and enshrined as the Senju Kanzeon Bodhisattva (statue 1.8 meters tall), which is the principal image of the sacred place. It is said that the river came to be called Birth River because of the birth of the Kannon statue there. The current Kamikosuge Kannon-do was destroyed in a fire in 1889, but was rebuilt in 1892, and is a raised-floor structure built on top of a stone wall (with an atrium underneath). It has a gabled roof with a flat iron roof.The front has a front wall with a front wall, three rows of beams, and three beams.The outer wall is made of solid wood paneling, and the floor has a balustrade and an edge with a pseudo-hoju, and around the edge there are pillars for attaching boards to protect against wind and snow. (Original) 上小菅観音堂の創建は文保二年(1318年)に鎌倉幕府の御家人である大江宗秀(長井秀宗:置賜長井庄の地頭)公によって開かれたのが始まりとされ、その後の文政十三年(1830年)に参拝するのに便が良い麓の現在地に境内を移しています。 上杉鷹山公の姫君が最初に観音堂を参拝したことから観音霊場の札所一番に定められたという。 霊場御本尊の秘仏千手観世音菩薩(像高一・八メートル)は伝承によると鎌倉時代初期に川から一本の楠の霊木が流れ着いたため、それを彫刻して千手観世音菩薩を安置したものとされる。 その川は観音像が生まれた事に因み誕生川と呼ばれるようになったと伝えられられる。 現在の上小菅観音堂は明治二十二年(1889年)に火災で焼失してしまいましたが明治二十五年(1892年)に再建された建物で石垣の上に建つ高床式(床下は吹き抜け)になっている。 入母屋造り鉄板葺き平入の屋根になります正面一間の向拝付きで桁行三間の梁間三間で、外壁は真壁造り素木板張りになり床には高欄・擬宝珠付きの縁を廻らして縁の周囲には風と雪除けの板を張り付けるための柱を設けています。
