Hachikan Shrine

[Silver] May 24, 2012 08:30

 It is said that Hachikan Shrine has a high probability of winning lottery if you visit and pray. (I can't guarantee true or false) I've been searching many times before and finally found it.

As shown in the photo, the location is enshrined between Ginza Nikko Hotel, "Ginza Felice" and "Sushi restaurant Ukai". It's about 15m from Gallery Shingendo near Shimbashi.

According to the Kyobashi Library's holding materials and the first issue of the public relations magazine "Ginza Hachikan" (published on January 1, 1978), the history of the event was published.

"At the beginning of Genroku, Inari welcomed the divine spirit of Ogami, who was enshrined at Matsu Hirasabei's residence in castle owner, Banshu Akashi Castle, to the present 8-chome. Since then, we have continued to walk along with the history of Ginza." If you are interested, please check the details at Kyobashi Library.
