Ikukono-kokoro-jinja
大阪市天王寺区生玉町１３−９
One of Osaka's representative ancient shrines, also known as 'Naniwa Taisha' or 'Iku-tama-san'. It features a main hall that inherits the unique architectural style of the Momoyama period, and its long-standing summer festival continues to be celebrated to this day.
History
According to tradition, the shrine was founded around the time before Emperor Jimmu ascended the throne. It was once enshrined on the site of Osaka Castle but was relocated to the current location in Nishi-Takatsu Village (now Ikutama-cho) during Toyotomi Hideyoshi's construction of Osaka Castle. During the Heian period, it was constantly served in the imperial court and played a significant role in court rituals, including being worshipped as the main deity during the Yashima Festival in Naniwa.
