Kehi Shrine

Reviewed By AlanWardinYork - York, United Kingdom

My wife and I visited the Kehi shrine as part of a day trip to Tsuruga. We were fortunate to be see some traditional dance and music demonstrations but most striking for us was the friendliness of the people. The city was SO welcoming and we would definitely recommend the city as a worthwhile stop for viewing this shrine and in April the flower exchanging festival in the nearby Kanegasakigu shrine

Kanegasakigu Shrine

Reviewed By AlanWardinYork - York, United Kingdom

My wife and I were very fortunate to visit Tsuruga on a cruise in April 2018. The city should not be judged by the beauty of its buildings (it is quite industrial), but by the beauty of its people - so welcoming and friendly. This is typified by the delightful flower exchanging festival at Kanegasakigu shrine. We would recommend anyone who was in the area of the shrine at the time of the festival to visit if possible. We found it to be such a happy and friendly visit and we had a fantastic time meeting the locals and taking part in the flower exchange.
