Takisan Tōshō-gū, Shinto shrine in Japan

Takisan Tōshō-gū is a Shinto shrine in Okazaki and ranks among the three major shrines of its kind in Japan. The structures display Edo-period craftsmanship with traditional wooden construction, detailed carved elements, and decoration that emphasizes natural materials.

The shrine was built in 1646 by order of the third shogun, Tokugawa Iemitsu, to honor Tokugawa Ieyasu. Later it absorbed nearby shrines dedicated to local deities, and in the 1950s its structures were officially designated as important cultural assets.

The shrine's name was changed to Tokiwa Jinja in 1917 after absorbing the nearby Hakusan and Hiyoshi shrines, and it was renamed Takisan Tōshō-gū in 1954. The plaque on the torii gate bears vertical characters, and the straw rope with white zigzag streamers marks the sacred boundary.

The shrine stands next to Takisan-ji, in the Takicho district of Okazaki. Meitetsu Nagoya Main Line trains serve Higashi Okazaki Station, about 15 minutes away by car; the English source instead describes a 15-minute walk from that station. The shrine is reached from the grounds of Takisan-ji.

The shrine houses swords and historical items donated by the Tokugawa family that never leave the site. These artifacts tell a long story of faith and the family's lasting connection to this place.
