It is said that worship in Seven Lucky Gods began in the Muromachi period, and it has been passed down to the Japanese for 500 years and has become popular every year.

Unlike others, the Nihonbashi Seven Lucky Gods tour consists of shrines.

The pilgrimage distance is short, and it is characterized by the fact that the pilgrimage can be visited in a short time in Japan.

Nihonbashi-dori and Ningyocho-dori are a downtown area with the tradition of Edo downtown.

We would like to guide you to visit while touching the nostalgic downtown atmosphere.

We do not have a starting point, so please feel free to visit us.

A course where you can enjoy the downtown atmosphere while visiting the Seven Lucky Gods (8 shrines) enshrined in Nihonbashi.

It is said that the religion of the Seven Lucky Gods began in the Muromachi period and is still active today.

The Nihonbashi Seven Lucky Gods are all occupied by shrines and are characterized by being able to go around in a relatively short time.

It is also popular because there are two Ebisu gods who are connected to business among the eight shrines.

On Ningyocho-dori and amazake Yokocho on the way to Seven Lucky Gods, there are long-established stores that inherit the tradition of Edo Shimomachi.

It's also fun to buy souvenirs after a walk.

※　Normally, it is explained at eight shrines, including Takarada Ebisu Shrine, but the official "Nihonbashi Seven Lucky Gods Tour" website does not add Takarada Ebisu Shrine. (It was not introduced on TV programs.)

I don't think "Nihonbashi Seven Lucky Gods Tour" will be presented on the upcoming Chuo-ku Tourism Test on January 27 (Saturday), but for the time being, the Rosmari style "How to Memorimorize the Nihonbashi Seven Lucky Gods Tour" ...

The characters on the head of Koami Shrine, Chanogi Shrine, Suitengu, Matsushima Shrine, Suehiro Shrine, Kasama Inari Shrine, Sugimori Shrine are:

"Ko, cha, sui, matsu, sue, kasa, sugi".

It's a bit too sticky.

It's not a smart way of remembering the Sumida River 9 bridges that I introduced earlier, "The mound is a soil, xylitol that starts with X instead of S".

-Autumn tradition lined with betara-zuke stalls~

Standing in the neighborhood where Takarada Ebisu Shrine is enshrined, Bettara City is an autumn tradition that has continued since the Keicho era (1596-1615).

fair stalls sell Bettara pickles (a shallow salted radish pickled on a rice koji floor) around Sugimori Shrine (Nihonbashikodenmacho and Nihonbashi Honmachi street).

Date and time: October 19-20

Location: The area around Nihonbashikodenmacho from the front of Takarada Ebisu Shrine to Sugimori Shrine (the area around Nihonbashi Horidomecho, Nihonbashiodenmacho and Nihonbashi Honmachi)
