History
The shrine's origins lie in Okabe Echi-no-kami Tadayoshi inviting the deity Dakiniten from Toyokawa Inari to worship at his private estate shrine. In 1828 CE (Bunsei 11), responding to the requests of believers, Myoken-ji Temple leased the land and established a pilgrimage site in Edo, which is considered the founding of the Tokyo Branch Shrine. In 1887 CE (Meiji 20), it relocated to its current location and remains the only direct branch shrine of the Soto sect.
