Three Shrines on a Tuesday
Kumano Hayatama Taisha Shrine - Shingu
Kunano Hongu Taisha Shrine- Hongu
Kumano Naichi Taisa - Nachisan
The Kumano Kado is also known as the Kumano Sanzan - referencing the three grand shrines (san is three in Japanese) in the Kii Mountains.Originally, each of these three Grand Shrines had their own distinctive form of nature worship; later in the 10th century, they started to give worship to all of the three guardian deities at the same time under the influence of Buddhism.
