Shibue Shirohige Shrine
〒124-0014 東京都葛飾区東四つ木４丁目３６−１８
Located in Katsushika Ward, Tokyo, this shrine is also known as Shibue Shirohige Shrine, a name derived from the old local place name. During the Edo period, it was known as Kyakunin Dai-Genzen and was popular among women for its reputed power to help them bear an heir, a blessing associated with Sakyō no Kyoku, a concubine of Tokugawa Ienari.
History
The founding date is unknown, though some theories suggest it was established in 860 CE (Jōgan 2) or during the Jishō era (1177–1181 CE). In the Edo period, it was called Kyakunin Dai-Genzen and served as the village guardian deity of Shibue Village. In 1869 CE (Meiji 2), the deities of Shirohige, Hachikōji, and Kyakunin Dai-Genzen were merged, and the shrine was renamed Shirohige Shrine.

What visitors say
Situated within a residential area, the shrine offers a quiet atmosphere for worship during the day. Although the grounds are compact, the aged stone torii gate and the carved shrine buildings are notable features. Visitors can receive a handwritten Goshuin (a shrine's calligraphic seal stamp) at the administrative office, and the location is also known as a setting for anime.
