[Tokyo/Ochanomizu] For matchmaking, visit Kanda Myojin

Kanda Myojin is a historic shrine located in Chiyoda Ward, Tokyo, boasting a history of about 1,300 years. Its greatest appeal lies in its history and culture as the "guardian deity of Edo," cherished by many people since ancient times, as well as its lively and open atmosphere that continues into the present day. Kanda Myojin is known for blessings related to career success, business prosperity, matchmaking, and winning luck, making it a "power spot in the city" visited by a wide range of people, from business owners and office workers to students and families. Especially famous is the "Kanda Festival" held every May, one of Japan's three major festivals, featuring colorful portable shrines and floats parading through the streets, creating a traditional event that unites the entire community in celebration. The shrine grounds are surrounded by beautiful vermilion main buildings and lush greenery, offering a quiet and calm atmosphere despite being in the city center. Historical buildings, a modern office for amulets, a café, and collaboration goods with anime are also incorporated, allowing visitors to enjoy a unique blend of "tradition × modernity" that is distinctive to Kanda Myojin. Additionally, being close to Akihabara, it is also revered as a "guardian deity of work and digital matters" by IT professionals and creators. It is loved by a wide range of people, including those who visit as a pilgrimage site for anime works♡ Kanda Myojin is a place where anyone can casually stop by, receive energy and blessings regardless of the era—a shrine filled with the weight of history, freshness, human connections, and vitality, embodying the unique charm of Tokyo. 📍Location: 2-16-2 Sotokanda, Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo 101-0021
