Abstract
The main shrine was reconstructed by Mr. Yoshimi Ouchi from A.D. 1419 to A.D. 1422. I researched verious sources to determine the plan and the elevation of the main shrine in Oei-year period. The entrance of the God is, however, in the side of the main shrine. The God is enshrined in the inner part and the outer part of the main shrine, as the result of the restoration of the main shrine. The God's seat in the inner part of the main shrine is 10.20 feet in length and 8.16 feet in width and in the outer part is 6.08 feet in length and 4.16 feet in width. The outer part of the main shrine was not afterward added to the inner part, but was built with the inner part from the very first. My paper on the architectural aspects of this shrine consists of these three parts. 1. Introduction 2. The main shrine in Oei-year period. 2.1 the restorated plan 2.2 the restoration of the God's seat 2.3 the restorated elevation 3. Consideration Oyamada-monjo
