Taimen Stones

In 1180, Minamoto no Yoritomo, the first Shogun of Kamakura, settled his headquarter at Yawata Shrine here. After the winning of the battle of Fujigawa, he and Yoshitsune, his younger brother met them each others first time at this place. Two stones were used for their chair. Also, Kaki tree that planted by Yoritomo at this moment is still here.
