Monument of the Historical Site of Okura Shogunate

The Kamakura Shogunate was in this area.

Original Text

Yoritomo's Kamakura Shogunate, which I learned from history, was in this area. It's a site now, but when I walk, is it just because of preconceptions that it feels like there was a shogunate? I just walk because there is nothing now, but it is a mysterious place.

It was the political center of the Kamakura Shogunate when it was established, and now it is also a place where cherry blossom trees continue.

At the beginning of the establishment of the Kamakura Shogunate, there was also a residence of Yoritomo, and it was the center of politics. Nowadays, there is nothing that can imagine what it was like at that time because it is an elementary school or a residential area. There is a stone monument that introduces the contents of the Okura Shogunate and a instruction manual for children (very well done). It's an extra thing, but although the road is narrow in the area, there are rows of cherry blossom trees, so you can see the scenery where petals fall. It is worth coming to Kamakura just by walking here.

Yoritomo built the Okura Imperial Palace, which is the residence in the Okura area northeast of Tsurugaoka Hachimangu, and is the center of the government affairs of the Shogunate by samurai families. The former Okura Shogunate has a gate in the north, south, east, west on the hill of the site of Hokkedo where Yoritomo's tomb is located, and beside each gate, the residence of influential Gokenin protects each gate. It is said that it was built Su. 46 ... until Yoritomo's wife Masako died and the Okura Shogunate until the third Shogun Sanetomo ended, and the Kamakura Shogunate's function was transferred to Utsunomiya Tsujiko.

There is a stone monument.

Do you know the "Okura Shogunate Ruins"? The site of the Kamakura Shogunate opened by Minamoto no Yoritomo was in a residential area on the east side of Tsurugaoka Hachimangu Shrine. A stone monument of the Okura Shogunate ruins stands on the corner of Seisen Elementary School. It would be nice to walk around the site of the Okura Shogunate (Okura Gosho) where Minamoto no Yoritomo lived and was the center of politics.

there's an explanation written by a child at seisen elementary school

There is only a monument beside Seisen Elementary School, but there is an explanation that elementary school students examined. It is written in solid letters. I wonder if the content will change.
