① Goshuin course around temples and shrines

Kameda Hachimangu Shrine
A shrine that is originated from the transfer of the spirit of Hachiman Okami from Kehi Jingu Shrine in Echizen Tsuruga (now Tsuruga City, Fukui Prefecture). As one of the oldest shrines in Hokkaido, it was also the battlefield during the Hakodate War. Bullet holes remain on the hall for the portable shrine.
Today, it is worshiped by the locals as the god of martial arts and games, and every year in mid-September the festival is held at the end of the season and is crowded with many people.

Hakodate Gokoku Shrine
A shrine that was built to be dedicated to the government soldiers who died in the Hakodate War. From the torii (gate), you can see the downtown Hakodate city and the Tsugaru Strait, and it is now popular as a matchmaking shrine.
The amulets are also popular as souvenirs for loved ones, as they have a reputation for being cute.

Sumiyoshi Shrine
It is said to have been built in the Kamakura period, and it enshrines Jurojin, one of the seven deities of good fortune on Mt. Hakodate. Located at the foot of Mt. Hakodate, the shrine is famous as a cherry blossom viewing spot, with the road leading to the main shrine lined with Yoshino cherry trees in the spring. From the top of the slope, you can see the Tsugaru Strait and the cityscape of Hakodate, and you can enjoy the scenery along with the cherry blossoms.

Hakodate Hachiman Shrine
A quiet shrine in the forest built in 1445. It is located in a scenic spot overlooking the Tsugaru Straits.
Near the precincts of the god of war and the god of prosperous business, there is a cherry tree called "life-prolonging cherry tree" that has been revived even though most part of it was destroyed in a disaster. The shrine is considered to be the guardian deity of sailing and fishing, and is affectionately known to the locals as "Hachiman-san."

Funatama Shrine
Located at the foot of Mt. Hakodate, it is the oldest shrine in Hokkaido.
It is said that when Minamoto no Yoshitsune was about to be wrecked in the Kamakura period, he was able to land at the shrine thanks to the protection of Funatama Myojin.
Nowadays, many people related to fisheries and students who take exams visit the shrine, and it is said that there is a benefit to protecting sea routes, road traffic, and one's future courses.

Hokkaido Toshogu Shrine
It is a shrine known as the name "Hakodate Toshogu Shrine", and the chozubachi (washing basin) placed in the precincts is a valuable item that still has bullet holes from the Hakodate War.
It is also the only "Toshogu Shrine" in Hokkaido.

Yukura Shrine
Matsumae Takahiro, the 4th feudal lord of the Matsumae clan who suffered from an intractable disease when he was a child, recovered from the disease after he took a bath in the hot spring discovered by his retainer. In gratitude for this, the shrine was rebuilt. Takeaki Enomoto, who occupied Goryokaku during the Hakodate War, had 250 wounded soldiers recuperate in this hot spring.

② Hakodate Spiritual Sites Course

Goryokaku Park
Goryokaku was the final site of the Boshin War. Goryokaku Park is a historic site where the history of the end of the Edo period remains. The new Goryokaku Tower overlooks the star-shaped moat that gives it its name.
In addition, cherry blossoms bloom every year around Golden Week, and it is crowded with many tourists as a cherry blossom viewing spot in Hakodate.
Goryokaku has a secret of power in the star-shaped "five-pointed star".
