偕楽園のお隣です Next to Kairakuen Garden.

偕楽園の駐車場の隣にある立派な護国神社です。

参道が砂利敷きなのが特に珍しかったです。

また、酒樽がたくさん並んでいたのは、地元から送られたのでしょう。

本殿も立派で、しかも芝生がある境内などは、お祭りでも出来そうな雰囲気でした。

当たり前かもしれませんが、大東亜戦争の慰霊碑もありました。

This is a magnificent Gokoku Shrine located next to the Kairakuen parking lot.

It was particularly unusual that the approach to the shrine is paved with gravel.

There were also many sake barrels lined up, which must have been sent from the local area.

The main shrine was magnificent, and yet the grounds, with its lawn, looked as if it could be the site of a festival.

It may be obvious, but there was also a memorial to the victims of the Greater East Asia War.
