Nemichi Shrine (根道神社, Nemichi jinja) is a Japanese Shinto shrine located in the city of Seki, Gifu Prefecture.[1] Nemichi Shrine has become famous for its koi pond, which has been compared to the Water Lilies paintings of Claude Monet.[2][3][4]
The shrine claims to have been founded in the mid-9th century, but no reliable historical records exist before the early Edo period.
