[Tokyo] A shrine dedicated to Tenjin and Hachiman

Kitano Hachiman Shrine 𓂃◌𓈒𓐍 𓂃◌𓈒𓐍𓂃◌𓈒𓐍𓂃 A shrine located in Tagara, Nerima Ward, adjacent to the Hikarigaoka Museum of Art. It is said to have been founded during the Eisho era (1046-1053) or the Kohei era (1058-1065). 　　 It was revered as the guardian deity of Uedagara, and was commonly known as Kitano Hachiman of Tagara. However, when looking at the shrine sign and plaque, Kitano Shrine and Hachiman Shrine are written side by side, so it seems that they are merged shrines. The deity of Kitano Shrine is Sugawara no Michizane. The deity of Hachiman Shrine is Emperor Ojin. ✼••┈┈┈┈••✼••┈┈┈┈••✼ ••┈┈┈┈ ••✼ ꕥShrine name: Kitano Hachiman Shrine ꕥAddress: 5-27-6 Tagara, Nerima-ku, Tokyo ꕥAccess: 🚉 Hikarigaoka Station → 7 minutes walk ✼••┈┈┈┈••✼••┈┈┈┈••✼••┈┈┈┈ ••✼ #0 yen travel autumn #Nerima ward #shrine #shrine tour
