Matsue Jinja is a shrine dedicated to the protection of the city from it’s home on the grounds of Matsue Castle. I had trouble finding any information regarding the shrine. With a generic name, all search engines turned up lists of shrines in the Matsue area. I will continue to look for information to update here, but until then, there’s not much I can say for now.

For the casual: 8. For the educated: 6.

The main appeal of this shrine is due to its placement along the path leading to the castle keep, so there’s little chance that visitors will miss it. The appearance of the shrine is subtle yet detailed with a cleanly maintained landscape as well as several beautifully decorated buildings.
