This is one of many temples in the socalled temple quarter (Tera-machi) of Nakatsu. They say the red color was used to cover spilled blood. more »

昔、騙し討ちされた武将たちの返り血を浴びた結果、何度、白に塗り替えしても血が滲んでくるため、結局、赤く塗り替えたとガイドさんから伺いました。通り沿いにあるため、車からでも見学可能です。 more »

Because blood will bleed and repainted white again, warlords, was still spurting blood-drenched as a result, even after all the Red Guide broke and sent from heard. Streets are available, from car along.

黒田官兵衛ゆかりの街の散策中にたまたま見かけたお寺ですが、長い赤壁にはかなり衝撃を受けました。皆さんも書いてある通り、歴史的な混乱により、血痕などを隠すために講じた手段だったわけですが、理由はともあれ今見るとなんというかモダンでオシャレに感じます。変わり種ではありますが、一度は見てもらいたい寺社の一つですね。 more »

Temple happened to be seen strolling in the city of Kuroda kanbe is, but I was shocked quite long red cliffs. And though it was a means to everyone here, due to historical confusion, hide, blood stains taken reason anyway see now what modern, stylish feel. It is one of the shrines, variations should be want to see once.

The first thing that stands out are the red walls in the street. Very photographic as are the others nearby.

黒田如水が前領主宇都宮重房を謀略結婚により中津城内で殺害した時に宇都宮の家臣らが城から脱出し、この寺を拠点として奮戦し、壮絶な最期を遂げた。以来門前の白壁は幾度となく塗り替えても血痕が絶えなかったので赤壁にしてしまったという。宇都宮氏は豊臣にとっても黒田にとっても目の上のたん瘤で九州統一のためには邪魔な存在であったからこの様な卑劣な方法しかとることが出来なかったのであろう。黒田にとって最大の汚点である。それと、宇都宮氏の子孫は私の叔母の友人だったのだ。それと、「赤壁」を「せきへき」と読まないようにね。

When Kuroda josui by the marriage plot killed before Lord Utsunomiya shigefusa at Nakatsu Castle were vassals of the Utsunomiya and escape from the Castle, and fought as a base for this temple, died a heroic death. So sprang up in bloodstains were since repainted again and again without walls in front of the red cliffs has said. Not take Utsunomiya said for the Toyotomi and Kuroda Kyushu in uniform for a distraction in the eyes on tann瘤 was from only such a sneaky way would be. In Kuroda's biggest blemish. It's my aunt's friend was a descendant of Utsunomiya. Try not to read "sekiheki", "Red Cliff".
