Miyukimori-tenjin-gu

The main deities are Emperor Nintoku, Sukunahikona no Mikoto and Osakahiko no Mikoto. About 1,600 years ago Ikaino was called Ikainotsu and was a harbour on the inlet at Naniwa, where the ikaibe lived, the ancient office that raised boars, like the takakaibe who kept hawks. One lamp stand that stood by the river at that time still remains. A stele at the shrine entrance records that Emperor Nintoku, who set his capital at Naniwa, often rested in the woods here when he went hawking, and that the place came to be called Miyuki no Mori after those imperial visits. Five old muku trees in the precincts are designated a preservation forest by the city, in the wish that 'we should all protect the precious greenery of the town'.
