Kamiaoki Hikawa Shrine in Kawaguchi City, Saitama Prefecture 𓂃◌𓈒𓐍 𓂃◌𓈒𓐍𓂃◌𓈒𓐍𓂃 It is said that when Aoki Village was divided into two villages, Kami and Kamishi, the shrine was founded in Bunmei 2 (1470) by inviting a branch of the Aoki Hikawa Shrine. During the Edo period, it was enshrined as the village's guardian deity. The guardian deity of the divided village, Kamiaoki Village, is now "Kamiaoki Hikawa Shrine" and the guardian deity of Shimoaoki Village is now "Guardian Hikawa Shrine"🙌 In 1873, it was ranked as a village shrine under the old shrine ranking system. There is no priest on-site, so it is a quiet shrine⛩, but Locals were visiting from the morning☺️ It is a shrine with a very refreshing atmosphere✨ ✼••┈┈┈┈••✼••┈┈┈┈••✼••┈┈┈┈••✼ ꕥShrine name: Kamiaoki Hikawa Shrine ꕥAddress: 2-27-26 Kamiaoki, Kawaguchi City, Saitama Prefecture ꕥAccess: 🚉Hatogaya Station → About 20 minutes walk ✼••┈┈┈┈••✼••┈┈┈┈••✼••┈┈┈┈••✼ #0 yen trip #Shrine tour
