The hotel shuttle bus driver did not wake us up and brought us back to the bus staging area and had us walk back to the hotel to catch the next shuttle. Came all the way from America to see the festival and missed half of it because we fell asleep on the final shuttle bus. Stay awake!

This shrine marks one end of the pilgrimage route across the mountains of Oga. In the past it was a syncretic Buddhist site, but became a Shinto shrine in the Meiji Period. Up behind the shrine is a collection of interesting Buddhist statues and massive stone stairs leading into the mountains. We went here instead of the nearby museum because there was a line to get in there, but while the shrine is quieter the whole narrow mountain road and parking can be crowded during holiday seasons.

男鹿市北浦真山水喰沢に鎮座する真山神社です。主祭神は瓊瓊杵尊、武甕槌。日本武尊の父である景行天皇の御代(西暦71130頃)、武内宿禰が北陸地方諸国視察のため男鹿半島へ下向の折、涌出山(今の真山・本山)に登り使命達成と国土安泰・武運長久を祈願したのが始まりと伝えられます。秋田県指定有形文化財である五社殿への道程は思いのほかきつく、到着時にはヘトヘトとなり体力の衰えを痛感…。 有り難く、授与所にて”真山神社”の御朱印を頂きました。

2020年10月31日に参拝しました。ナマハゲが大晦日の晩に降りてくることでも有名だと思います。東北地方の神社は、神仏習合なので、仁王門が健在です。明治維新の廃仏毀釈で仁王像を壊してしまった神社も多かった中で、よくぞ残してくれましたと言いたくなります。弘法大師ゆかりの石仏も残っています。
