Chou Jinja Original Koma-usagi (Man'en 2)
〒330-0064 埼玉県さいたま市浦和区岸町３丁目１７−２５
This is a Shikinaisha (a shrine listed in the Engishiki codex) known for having statues of rabbits rather than the traditional guardian dogs (komainu). Due to the character 'Chou' in its name, it has long been associated with Tsuki-machi shinji (moon-waiting faith).
Enshrined deities
Amaterasu Omikami, Susanoo-no-Mikoto
History
Legend states that the shrine was founded in March of the Otori year during the reign of the 9th Emperor Kaika as a site for offering sacred emblems. It is also speculated that the shrine originated from a storehouse (Mikura) used to hold tribute goods offered to Ise Jingu (Ise Grand Shrine); after fulfilling its role, the structure was revered as sacred and enshrined. In the medieval period, it became linked with moon-waiting faith. Historical records mention the restoration of the shrine buildings under the order of Ashikaga Takauji, as well as its destruction by fire during wartime in the 18th year of Tensho (1590 CE).
