Takeda Shrine
〒897-0002 鹿児島県南さつま市加世田武田１７９３２
This shrine enshrines Shimazu Tadayoshi (also known as Nisshin), the ancestor who revitalized the Shimazu clan. It is also known as the place where the history of the Kayota Shi Mai (a traditional dance) originated.
History
The shrine was established in 1869 CE (Meiji 2) to enshrine the spirit of Shimazu Tadayoshi. In ancient times, the site was known as Hozen-ji Temple. In 1564 CE (Eiroku 7), it was renamed Nisshin-ji Temple. When the temple was abolished in 1869 CE (Meiji 2), the land and buildings were transferred and the site was renamed Takeda Shrine. The main hall was constructed in 1873 CE (Meiji 6), and the shrine was designated as a Prefectural Shrine in 1928 CE (Showa 3).

What visitors say
The vast grounds feature stone monuments of the Iroha poem, a large camphor tree that evokes a sense of history, and a camphor tree with a tree age of 400 years, all enveloped in a solemn and majestic atmosphere. Cherry blossoms bloom in the spring, and in the summer, the shrine hosts one of the three major summer festivals in the prefecture. The surrounding area is also part of a cycling course, making it an ideal environment for driving or leisurely strolls.
