Kansha-gu
〒014-0511 秋田県仙北市西木町西明寺潟尻
A small shrine built extending out over the waters of Lake Tazawa. Due to the naming of Kansha-gu, Lake Tazawa came to be known as Lake Kansha or Lake Cha.
History
Because it enshrines a large piece of driftwood that floated ashore, it is also known as Uki-buki Shrine (Driftwood Shrine). It was named Kansha-gu in 1769 CE (Meiwa 6) by Masuto Soshu, a samurai of the Akita Domain who was also a haiku poet and scholar of Chinese classics.
