About this Shrine

Spring Day Shrine, located in the city of Kanazawa in Ishikawa Prefecture, is a Shinto shrine dedicated to the god of spring, cherry blossoms, and new beginnings. The shrine's main hall was built during the Heian period (794-1185 CE), and its architectural style reflects this historical era. The shrine's grounds are famous for their beautiful gardens, which showcase various types of Japanese flowers and trees.

Cultural Significance

Spring Day Shrine is associated with the mythological figure of Sakuya-no-kami, a goddess who brings new life to nature. The shrine's cherry blossom trees are said to be the same ones that bloomed in the gardens of the Imperial Palace during the Heian period.
