    Notes & Remarks

    In front of the shrine (south side), there is a nationally designated Kashihara abandoned temple site park (historical park). Kashihara "Satsunotsuji" is an important place for transportation and logistics where the "San-in Kaido" and "Nishikuni Kaido" intersect. In the Edo period, it prospered very much as a "post town" and a "place of lodging for daimyo who changed their work". Even now, many buildings with insect basket windows remain, and buildings along the highways of the Edo period, such as the Honjin ruins and Gokura, are carefully preserved. The area around the former San-in Highway is designated as a townscape preservation area. Kashihara was the last inn station of Ojo (Heiankyo), and the pass called Oinosaka, which leads to Kameoka, was the border between Yamashiro and Tamba. In the Heian period, it was said that it was a turmoil pass where this world and the world coexist. And in Oinozaka, "Shuzuka Daimyojin", which is said to be "Shuten Doji no Shuzuka", is enshrined.
