Currently, I have a short stay in Yamaguchi city, located at the very western tip of the mainland, for around four weeks. This is my first weekend and I rambled new neighborhood on Sunday.
Sure, I visited a couple of local shrines! Two shrines are combined there: Tsunetomi Hachimangu (恒富八幡宮) and Takakurakou Shrine (高倉荒神社). Since it's named Hachimangu, Hondawakenomikoto, also known as Emperor Ohjin (応神天皇) is enshrined in Tsunetomi Hachimangu, as well as Ichikishimahime no mikoto (市杵嶋姫命), Takirihime no mikoto (多紀理毘売命), and Tagitsuhime no mikoto (多岐都比売命).

It's a brand new building as they lost almost all buildings by fire in February 2002 (local newspaper article here in Japanese).

水が口からしたたる龍、今まさに岩を這い登り、喉の渇きを一気に癒すようで、迫力満点です。
彼も多くの女性の神様には 猫のように甘えるのかもしれませんね。 川*'-')ﾌﾌ♪
