Tsurugaok Hachimangu #31974513
Description
Tsurugaoka Hachimangu was established by Minamoto Yoriyoshi (988-1075) in 1063. He built the foundations for the Minamoto warrior clan in the east of Japan after the suppression of the rebellion in 1062. He returned to Kamakura, and built a small shrine for the Hachiman kami (the Japanese word for Shinto deities or sacred beings) near the coast by way of thanks for success in suppressing the rebellion.
