Honjo Shrine
〒500-8369 岐阜県岐阜市敷島町９丁目２４
This shrine is known as the Ujigami (local tutelary deity) of the Honjo district in Gifu City. It is considered one of the shrines representing the torso of Yamata-no-Orochi (the Eight-Forked Serpent).
History
Originally a single shrine, it was divided into three separate shrines around 1599 by Oda Nobuyasu, with Honjo Shrine established as one of them. It served as the Ujigami (local tutelary deity) of the Honjo district in Gifu City and was recorded as 'Sho-Roku-i no Joge Niwaga Ho Meikami' in the Atsugi District of Mino Province. It became a Kosha (village shrine) in 1873 and was incorporated into Gifu City in 1931.

What visitors say
It is said to be located at the intersection of the four corners connecting Mount Fuji, Mount Hakusan, Izumo Taisha (Izumo Grand Shrine), and Ise Jingu (Ise Grand Shrine), featuring the 'Shiawase Inori no Miya' (Hall of Happiness Prayers) where Shihouhai (prayers to the four directions) can be performed. The grounds include gardens and many trees, allowing for worship in a quiet atmosphere. The shrine office handles Omamori (amulets) and Goshuin (calligraphic seal stamps), and a parking lot is available.
