"Tokyo Fukumeguri" is a tour of famous shrines in Tokyo and give them a fortune.

Participating shrines are eight shrines: Asakusa-jinja Shrine, Torigoe Shrine, Fukutoku Shrine, Namiki Shrine, Kasumori Shrine, Takanawa Shrine, Togoshi Yahata Shrine, and Kamishinmei Tenso Shrine. (Station order from the north of the Toei Asakusa Line).
At the shrines in Chuo-ku, "Mebuki Inari" Fukutoku Shrine (Nihombashi Station) and "Tsukiji's Namiki-sama" Namiki Shrine (Higashi Ginza Station) are participating.

If you listen to the participants, each company, enshrined deity, and the interests of each company, there are various benefits, such as prosperity of business, family security, good luck of success, achievement of good luck, achievement of academic achievement, improvement of arts, health and longevity, healing of illness, health and well-being, health and well-disaster prevention...And so on.

It seems that there will be ten benefits after the tour of the eight companies.

 In addition, at Tsukiji's Namiki Inari Shrine, a "Remnants Hina Shinto" will be held.

 "Remnant Hina Shinto ritual" is to first store the chicks who have finished their role at the shrine, see them by the general public, and then fire them.
