"Irifune Inari Shrine" in the precincts of Sumiyoshi-jinja Shirine and copper lanterns
In February, it is said, "January goes (going), February escapes, March leaves," but it is certainly three months early in the new year. The first noon of February and the second noon passed before, but this time we will introduce "Irifune Inari Shrine" in the precincts of Tsukuda Sumiyoshi-jinja Shirine. It sits next to the portable shrinekura in the back of the precincts.
According to the website of Sumiyoshi-jinja Shirine, this Irifune Inari was enshrined on February 27, 1869. So today is the 153th year.
enshrined deity is the god of the soul. Tsukuda Island has Mori Inari Shrine, Naniwa Inari, and Osaki Inari since the creation of Tsukuda Island, and four companies in three locations.
In the precincts, there are prominent copper lanterns in addition to the well-known basin and the flats of ceramic plates. According to HP, the work of Okazaki Snow Voice (1854-1921) was donated in 1915 (1915). Yukio Okazaki is a founder (Imoji) who worked on the statue of Masashige Kusunoki in Kokyogaien, a professor at the metal casting department at Tokyo Bijutsu School, and Nagao Watanabe (1874-1952), who produced the statue of Kirin in Nihonbashi, is a groom. The casting was in charge of the snow voice.
In the precincts of Sumiyoshi-jinja Shirine, there are Funatama Shrine, Pox Shrine, Epidemi Shrine, etc. as precincts, and there is also a monument of Mizutani Ryotei in Kawayanagi, but when you are walking around the city, it is quite difficult to take time restrictions I am always sorry that you can't see it slowly. At this time of the COVID-19 pandemic, explore the precincts to every corner! How about it?
