Oyama Shrine
尾山神社 · Shinto shrine
Kanazawa City Tourism Association records that the shrine enshrines Maeda Toshiie and was moved to its present location in 1873, and that its main gate mixes traditional and imported design. It records that the garden is laid out in the round-the-pond style, with an artificial island and a bridge shaped after old musical instruments.
The shrine gives separate times for its amulet and seal desk and for prayer services. It does not publish an opening or closing time for the grounds themselves, so we do not give one.
