[Tokyo/Kanda Shrine] The main guardian shrine of Edo, ranked among the top in the nation for visitors

It is one of the most popular shrines in Japan. During the New Year, the roads are filled with worshippers. Three deities are enshrined: Ichinomiya: Oonamuchi-no-Mikoto Ninomiya: Sukunahikona-no-Mikoto Sannomiya: Taira no Masakado-no-Mikoto. Not only do young women gather here, but in the spring, you can also see many business groups and new employees offering prayers. There are also eye-catching objects of the enshrined deity on the grounds. In December 2018, the Kanda Myojin Cultural Exchange Center "EDOCCO" opened, selling original goods and has a cafe, so you can relax and enjoy yourself. In addition, the sacred horse "Akari" is also on the grounds, which is another highlight. ┈┈┈┈┈┈┈ ❁ ❁ ❁┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈ ❥❥History Founded in 730 by Shinkanda no Omi (a descendant of Okuninushi) on the beach of Shibasaki in Toshima County, Musashi Province.
