Imai Kaido and Imai Castle Ruins

A bus route that runs through the center of Imaimachi. Imai Kaido has been the main street of Imaimachi for a long time.
Behind "Konoji" along the highway is a hill called "Shiroyama". Kuruwa (a basic concept of forming the castle to protect against enemies) is formed on the southern and northern plains of the 300m north-south hill, and on the hillside.
Locally, it is reported that there was a fort here. It is said that it was the residence of Yoshinaka Kiso's Shigeomi Kanehira Imai, but unfortunately there is no record.
"Shiroyama," "Shiroyama Inari" is enshrined at the southern end of the temple.
In October 1955, a large pot of Tokoname ware was dug out from the base of the vine tree on the south side of small shrine in Shiroyama Inari. It contained a large amount of old coins of about 400 kg.
The excavated old coins were used from the Kamakura period to the Warring States period, and were mainly from Chinese coins (Tang Qian, Southern Song Qian, Northern Song Qian, Mei Qian, etc.).
At present, a monument written as "Imai Castle Ruins" is built on the grounds of Shiroyama Inari, written by the late Mayor of Michiichi Saigo. Why don't you visit it once?
