Kawagoe Hikawa Shrine, a lucky charm for digging sweet potatoes and catching sea bream⛩️🥰 Finally we arrived at Hikawa Jinja Shrine where the kids were looking forward to playing! Hikawa Jinja Shrine has a history of 1,500 years and is registered as a designated cultural heritage by Kawagoe City. It has the largest wooden torii gate in Japan (15 meters). The gods of the couple (Susanoo no Mikoto and Kiinadahime-no-mikoto), the parents of Kiinadahime-no-mikoto (Kyomu no Mikoto and Temu no Mikoto), and the couple's child, Oki no Takamikoto, are enshrined. The main prayers are for good fate, a happy marriage and a happy family. Hikawa Shrine is located at the northernmost end of Kawagoe City and was the last place we arrived at on our itinerary. The company has different colors of Tai Mikan fortune slips every month. In July, they are red and pink, and they used to have purple! Miyazaki Dog and Penguin each caught one and took it home, they had a lot of fun 😂 Maybe it’s the season for sweet potatoes, and Kumamon has a chance to dig up red and yellow sweet potatoes to match his look🤣 The painted horse tunnel where people pray for their wishes to come true and the wind chimes hung everywhere made people feel cozy and comfortable despite the 35-degree temperature. Hope everything goes well and safely! See you next time! #kawagoe #hikawajinjashrine #sea bream #divine fortune #amulet #sweet potato🍠 #Kumamon #miyazakidog #digging sweet potatoes #fishing #penguin #penguin #kumamon #tokyo #fatty #July #foodiegirl #raccoon #kiwibird #romance #shrine #wind chime #ema
