Happy New Year
I look forward to seeing you again this year
Well, this year is the year of the Dog.
That's why on the sunny New Year's Day, I went around the Nihonbashi Seven Lucky Gods of my home.
The first is Koami Shrine (Fukurokuju, Benzaiten).
There was a placard with the word "the last" and the line of worshiper was long
Mimizuku talismans made in Japanese pampas grass, Mayutama Omikuji, and November Doburoku Festival are famous, and the pentagonal Kagura Hall (pictured above) next to shrine hall is impressive.
It's Chanogi Shrine (Hobukuro-son)
Tea trees are planted around the shrine.
It is Inari God, but it is also called protective god against fire outbreaks.
It's Suitengu (Benzaiten).
There were many worshipers here as well.
It is a god who benefits safe delivery, water shortage, and mizusho sales, and is famous for its safe delivery on the day of the Dog.
At Suitengu Street
It is Matsushima Shrine (a great power god)
At the time of its foundation, the name of the shrine was that the surrounding area was Kojima (),
a cove, and pine was overgrown on the island, but now a shrine is incorporated into the building.
I'm going to the next shrine through amazake Yokocho.
Take a break in front of Benkei statue of the Kanjincho Ryokudo on the Hamacho Ryokudo
Suehiro Shrine (Vaisravana)
The name of the company is derived from the discovery of a fan of Chugai (= Suehiro) during the restoration of shrine hall.
Kasama Inari Shrine Tokyo Betsusha (Kotobukijin)
This shrine was separated from Kasama Inari Shrine in Kasama City, Ibaraki Prefecture.
It is worshiped as a guardian deity of five grains, fisheries, and breeding.
Sugimori Shrine (Ebisu God)
This shrine is famous as a place for lottery performances that became popular during the Edo period, and there is a monument of Tomizuka (pictured above), a ward-owned folk cultural property, on the precincts.
It is Takarada Ebisu Shrine (Ebisu God).
The Ebisu God of sacred object of worship was given by Ieyasu Tokugawa () and is said to have been written by both Unkei and Jingoro left.
Every October, it is full of Bettara City, but today on New Year's Day, Betta pickles were sold in front of the shrine.
