@The Emperor Gomurakami (1328 -1368 ) often
made an Imperial visit to the Sumiyoshi Shrine
in the Period of the Northern and Southern
Dynasties .He moved from Yoshino ( Nara Prefecture
) to this site in the 7 th year of Shokei
(in the first year of Bunna 1352 ) and lived
temporarily as his palace at Shoinden which
was situated within the residence of a Shinto
priest , Tsumori ) Afterwards the site became
a center of trying to get the sovereignty
of the Southern Dynasty and was used as a
temporary palace for 9 years before he died
in the 23 rd year of Shohei ( the first year
of Ouan ,1368 ), so the Emperor Chokei succeeded
him and moved again to Yoshino .
