What visitors say
Known as the birthplace of the Maneki-neko (beckoning cat), the grounds feature many beckoning cat statues. It is popular as a deity for marriage matchmaking and offers a calm atmosphere for leisurely worship. Located a short walk from Senso-ji Temple, its omamori (amulets) and Goshuin (calligraphic seal stamps) also feature beckoning cat motifs.
