I recently visited Takeda Shrine, and it exceeded all my expectations! If you're a Japan history buff like me, this place is a must-visit. Nestled in a serene setting, Takeda Shrine offers a fascinating journey into the rich history of the Takeda clan, particularly during the reign of Takeda Shingen. The highlight for history enthusiasts is undoubtedly the museum dedicated to the Takeda clan. It provides an in-depth look into the life and times of Takeda Shingen, showcasing artifacts, relics, and informative displays that transport you back to that era. The attention to detail is commendable, making it a truly immersive experience. The serene surroundings also make it a peaceful escape for families looking to enjoy some quality time together.

During my early college years, I had to do a report on Takeda Shingen. Years later on this day, I had the honor of visiting a shrine dedicated to him. The shrine has an array of Shingen theme charms and you can even purchase a small scale size of his banner. Unfortunately the Shingen museum was closed due some renovations, but artifacts site was open and there were plenty of historic displays including katanas, kabutos, scrolls, and banner used in battle.

Must visit here if you come to kofu. A city full of takeda seal (The red diagonal diamond). From the station you need to either walk 2.1km up a slop or take a bus @190yen per person just outside the station. Not to worry the bus can exchange big note to small change. When enter the bus (every half hour) take the ticket from the back gate. Before reaching the shine press the bell. The bus driver will stop and see you pay the bus fee . Very convenient.

I visited by bicycle. Since there wasn't a designated bike parking area, a security guard kindly directed me to a place where I could park. The road to Takeda Shrine has a steady uphill slope. The shrine grounds are very well-maintained, making for a pleasant walk.

The whole area is full of historical spots to see, and this one is a rich and well-maintained jewel. Any time of the day, it’s beautiful and lush to see. There is a noh stage in addition to the usual hostels. If you’re into samurai, it’s a must-visit.

歴史好きが講じて訪問。 甲府駅から武田通りの直線を徒歩で30分。 鳥居をくぐる前に歩いてきた道を振り返り、一点透視法の構図を見ると気持ちが高揚。 階段を一段ずつ踏みしめる度鼓動が高鳴る。 手水舎で手口を清めていると視界に能楽堂と思しき松の絵が施された建物が。 信虎・晴信・勝頼が楽しんでいたかもしれない光景を想像すると一気に気持ちが爆発して撮影を忘れた事を今になって悔やむ。 そして参拝、爆上がりした気持ちを沈めるためと思いながらも平静とは程遠い高揚感。 神社本堂の奥にも建物があり、その建物こそが武田家三代の面々が生活をしていた本殿かも…と行って見たかったが規制線で立入れず、残念。 当然の事ながら宝物殿にも立ち寄る。 他のお客さんもいた為表情には出さなかったがガラス越しの1点1点じっくり時間をかけて拝見、古文書・孫氏の旗や武田二十四将図、中でも甲陽軍鑑には特別時間をかけて拝見したため宝物殿だけで2時間近くの時間を割く。 もし撮影可能であればと何度思ったことか…。 自前の御朱印帳を持参していたのに武田神社の御朱印帳に惹かれて購入。 武田家の歴史を拙く振り返りながら武田神社をあとにすると信玄ミュージアムが誘う。 受験勉強からハマっていった戦国時代を華やぐ一角を雄雄しく活躍した武田家の栄枯盛衰の内容を網羅したこの展示場には感謝。 明らかになっている史実を事細かに1件ずつ説明されていて、自分なりの考察の整合性の確認もできた。 「人は城 人は石垣 人は堀 情けは味方 仇は敵なり」 人の和を重んじ、それこそが武器であり盾であると謳う信玄の仁政は現世にも通じるであろう世の理と私は思う。 此度の感動は改めて心に深く刻まれた。
