  難読だろう。「こうたり」。JR長岡京駅は昔はこうたり駅でした。子供の頃読んだ話では、桓武天皇が神様の夢を見た。しかしなぜか足しか見えない。そこで神足という地名になったということだったように思う。 しかし、創祀や祭神は諸説あり、とらえどころがない。 長岡京市が整備して、勝竜寺城の空堀の跡などが史跡され、芝生整地されている。お社の北側もグランドになったし。昔は鬱蒼とした竹藪に覆われたお社だった。鳥居横の八重桜が満開でうれしかった。

  It's probably an obfusmis. "Kotori". JR Nagaokakyo Station used to be a railway station. In the story I read when I was a child, Emperor Tsujimu dreamed of God. But for some reason, I can only see my feet. I think that it became a place name called God's foot there. However, there are various theories about the creation and the deity, and it is elusive. Nagaokakyo City has been established, and the remains of the empty moat of Katsuryuji Castle are historic sites, and lawns are landed. The north side of the company became a ground, too. It used to be a company covered with dense bamboo shoots. I was happy that the double cherry blossoms next to torii were in full bloom.

  It is a very splendid shrine. But I don't like Shiba Inu-san.
