Tamazato House Gardens of ShimazuOur first stop is a hidden gem garden about 30 minutes by bus and foot from the meeting point: the former Tamazato Residence Garden of the Shimadzu clan. This daimyo garden was created in 1835 by Shimadzu Narioki, the 27th head of the family. We'll explore the garden, the teahouse (veranda seating available, no entry), and a bamboo grove. Enjoy a short meditation with healing instruments and a restroom break during our visit
-
Kagoshima ShrineThe current main shrine was rebuilt in 1758 through a donation by Shimadzu Shigetoshi. It's about a 10-minute walk from our first stop. Here, I'll explain the sacred trees, how to pass under the Torii gate, the hand-washing ritual, and how to pray.
-
Our third stop, Kagoshima Gokoku Shrine, is a quick 5-minute walk from the last one. It's dedicated to Kagoshima's war dead from the late Edo period to today. We'll review shrine manners and I'll tell you about Kagoshima's history here.
