Koami Shrine — A small but called the “strongest” power spot in the city center

A hidden miracle shrine in Nihonbashi, Tokyo that invites good luck, financial fortune, and protection from misfortune ⸻ 📝About the place • A historic shrine that survived war and epidemics: Founded in 1466 (Bunshō 1) to ward off epidemics, the shrine’s main hall was not burned down during the Tokyo air raids, and there is a legend that all soldiers who went to the battlefield returned safely. This has spread the benefits of “strong luck and protection from misfortune” and “increased financial fortune” nationwide . • An ancient shrine building with shining carvings: The main hall, rebuilt in 1929, was crafted by the chief artisan of Meiji Shrine. The carvings of ascending and descending dragons are magnificent, and it is a rare pre-war wooden structure in Tokyo . • Blessings of Tokyo’s Money-Washing Benten: On the shrine grounds is the “Money-Washing Well,” where washing money is believed to “increase your money,” making it a bustling top financial luck power spot in the Kanto region . • Fukurokuju of the Seven Lucky Gods: One of the shrines on the Nihonbashi Seven Lucky Gods pilgrimage, it also enshrines a statue of Fukurokuju, the god of happiness, wealth, longevity, and matchmaking . ⸻ 📌Basic Information • Address: 16-23 Koamicho, Nihonbashi, Chuo-ku, Tokyo  • Access: 5-minute walk from Exit A2 of Ningyocho Station on the Tokyo Metro Hibiya Line / 7–10 minutes on foot from Ningyocho Station or Suitengumae Station on the Toei Asakusa Line / About 20 minutes on foot from Tokyo Station or by bus (approx. 20 minutes, 210 yen)  • Worship Hours: Open all day. Amulets and goshuin (shrine stamps) available from 10:00 to around 17:00 (open year-round)  ⸻ 🎯Recommended Points • Strong luck & protection from misfortune: Feeling the power of a shrine that survived war and fire attracts many repeat visitors . • Money-washing for financial luck: The act of cleansing money once at the “Money-Washing Well” after worship is popular and well-received by travelers stopping by . • Artistic architecture and carvings: The wooden carvings of ascending and descending dragons are spectacular and great for photos . • Compact & convenient location: Despite being in the heart of Nihonbashi, it offers a quiet and calm space. It’s also attractive for stopping by after shopping or work . ⸻ 🏷️Hashtags #KoamiShrine #StrongLuckProtection #MoneyWashingBenten #NihonbashiPowerSpot #WarSurvivalMiracleShrine
