Ikuta Shrine



          I went to Ikuta shrine yesterday, so I am going to write about it today.
          Ikuta shrine is located in Tyuou-ward, Kobe-city. This is the shrine that Tomonori Jinnai who is a comedian and Norika Fujiwara who is an actress held a wedding ceremony although they got a divorce only two years later. The name of "KOBE" actually came from this shrine, so it represents Kobe. This shrine is a very old one, so it encountered Kobe-big floods in1938, Kobe-big air raids in 1945 and Hanshin-awaji big earthquake in 1995. Although it got huge damage everytime, it revived everytime. So this shrine is also called "Revived Shrine".

          This shrine is also famous as "Love fulfill shrine", so many couples hold a wedding ceremony every year. And there is a legend that if a man buy a white lucky charm and a woman buy a red one after they worship together, they will marry in the future.
          In conclusion, I want to visit Ikuta shrine again with my future husband!
