Kanzaki Jingu (Kanzaki Grand Shrine)
敦賀市金ケ崎町１−４
One of the fifteen shrines associated with the Kenmu Restoration, this shrine is also known by the nickname 'Shrine of Love' due to its legends of romance and the custom of the Hanagae Matsuri (Flower Exchange Festival). It is also a famous spot for cherry blossoms, featuring approximately 1,000 Somei Yoshino trees.
History
Founded in 1890 (Meiji 23) as a Kanchu-sha (a shrine of medium rank under imperial patronage) enshrining Prince Takarahito at the site of Kanzaki Castle, Prince Tsunehito was added to the enshrinement in 1892 (Meiji 25). The main hall was completed at the current location in 1893 (Meiji 26), and the deities were transferred there. The shrine has a history that includes visits by Emperor Shōwa, the celebration of its 600th anniversary, and the imperial bestowal of sacrificial rice and offerings.

The steps on the mountain path leading to the shrine are steep, but the scenery beyond the torii gate is magnificent. Known as a deity for matchmaking, there is a notebook for matchmaking requests next to the coin box. Goshuin (shrine seal stamps) are written on the spot by hand, and you can also receive special Goshuin related to Kanzaki Castle or featuring a dinosaur motif.
