History

What visitors say
This small shrine is located in a residential area and is within walking distance of Tokyo Dome. In February, the Koubai (Red Plum) Festival is held, offering a refreshing atmosphere with the scent of plum blossoms in the grounds. During this period, limited-edition omamori (protective amulets) and Goshuin (shrine seal stamps) are available. Note that the Goshuin are handwritten directly into your Goshuin-chō (shrine stamp book) and are not pre-written.
