Hachidai shrine
It is said that the legendary swordsman miyamoto musashi stopped here on his way to a duel with the yoshioka family, intending to pray for victory, but instead, he reached a state of mind where he "respects the gods and buddhas but does not rely on them," and after paying his respects, he headed to the battlefield at ichijoji shimomatsu. a part of the old stump of the shimomatsu pine tree remains at this shrine.
