[Tokyo/Tanashi Shrine] A power spot where the Five Dragon Gods live

A 7-minute walk from Tanashi Station. One of Tokyo's most powerful spots is located at a station that is unlikely to be used by non-locals. The main deities enshrined are Shinatsuhiko-no-Mikoto, Shinatobe-no-Mikoto, and Okuninushi-no-Mikoto. In particular, Shinatsuhiko-no-Mikoto and Shinatobe-no-Mikoto are said to be gods of wind who blew divine winds and forced the Mongolian army to retreat during the Mongol invasions. Tanashi Shrine has two golden dragons based on the five elements, and red, black, white, and blue dragons are placed in the other precincts. The large ginkgo tree, which resembles a dragon, is also magnificent. Worshippers from all over Japan now visit the shrine to represent the five dragons. When I visited, I encountered a couple who said they had come from Hokkaido. Recently, the shrine has become increasingly popular, with initiatives such as the Tanabata tunnel and flower water fountains. In addition, hydrangeas and the character for "luck" written in cursive script by SHOCK EYE have been dedicated. It takes less than 30 minutes to get there from Seibu Shinjuku Station by express train. Please take a little trip and visit the sacred land of dragons. ✼••┈┈┈┈••✼••┈┈┈┈••✼ ❥❥ Tanashi Shrine Tanashi Station → 🚶‍♀️ About 7 minutes walk ✼••┈┈┈┈••✼••┈┈┈┈••✼ #Tanashi Shrine #Dragon God #Power Spot #Shrine #Tokyo Sightseeing
