The shrine was originally founded in Zaimokuza in 1063 by Minamoto

Yoriyoshi to be dedicated to Hachiman kami, the guardian deity of the Genji
(Minamoto) clan. In 1180, the descendant Minamoto Yoritomo moved
the shrine to its present site. In 1191, he set the shrine as the center of the
Kamakura Shogunate (Government of Kamakura), and also modeled it into
the present arrangement-the Hongu (Main Shrine) on the top of the stone
steps and the Wakamiya Shrine at the bottom of it.

Kamakura is an ancient city that has produced its own, original culture. Once
it was a political capital along with Nara and Kyoto, and also the birthplace of
Japans first military government, the Kamakura Bakufu. Warrior Minamoto
no Yoritomo was appointed as Seii-Taishogun (shogun) by the Imperial Court
in 1192 and established the Kamakura Bakufu government, which is the first
military government in Japan, whereas previously the Imperial Court in Kyoto
held power.
After Yoritomos death, the Hojo clan governed this area. Trade with the Sung
and Yuan dynasties of China prospered in the 13th century and a various aspects
of Chinese culture, including Zen (Buddhism), Zen-style architecture, Buddhist
statures, and Chinese lacquer ware, were imported.
The Kamakura Bakufu ended in 1333. But the military culture of that era, in
which the simple and strong spirit of warriors, traditional aristocratic culture, and
Chinese Sung and Yuan culture were blended, has continued to greatly influence
Japanese society down to the present day.
Kamakura began flourishing as a temple town in the 17th century. From the
19th century, it became popular for beaches, resort areas, and residential districts.

Kawabata Yasunari, a writer who was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature,

ocean and surrounding green hills, Kamakura today attracts a large number
of tourists.

Sando, or the formal approach to the

shrine. In the spring, it is lined with
cherry blossoms and makes beautiful

Military Culture of Kamakura

Genpei-ike Pond

Hongu (Main Shrine)

Samurai, or warriors, in Kamakura daily refined their martial skills to prepare

to go to battle whenever necessary. Military culture-related goods, such as
finely wrought armor, excellent swords, and scroll paintings depicting war,
were brought to Kamakura from across the country. Yabusame, a ritual in
which a person dynamically shoots three arrows while riding a galloping horse,
also originated here. Nowadays, Yabusame is held at Tsurugaoka Hachimangu
Shrine on the final day of Kamakura Festival in April and on September 16
every year.

Tips for Shrines and Temples

Shrine

Shrine refers to Japanese native shrine and there enshrined is a variety of

deities. What is enshrined varies from shrine to shrine. Shrine called Jinja in
Japan.

Way of Praying
In front of the torii gate, which is the entrance of a shrine, bow one time
towards the main hall. Passing through the torii, walk along one side or the
other side of the approach, not in the center. Purify yourself at the water
pavilion called chozuya or temizuya. (Purify your hands and mouth with
water. Dont let the ladle touch your mouth!) Slightly bow, ring the bell,
toss money into the money box, and pray in the Shinto bowing and clapping style (Nirei Nihakushu Ichirei). Bow slightly and leave. When leaving the
precincts, make one bow towards the main hall and the torii.
