History
In Genroku 3 (1617 CE), Hosokawa Tadaoki established the Gion Shrine as the head guardian shrine of the Kokura Domain. It was renamed Yasaka Shrine in 1871. In 1934, it was relocated inside Kokura Castle to avoid smoke damage. The annual festival, Kokura Gion Taiko, was initiated by Hosokawa Tadaoki based on the model of Kyoto's Gion Matsuri.
