Tokyo Daijingu, the sacred shrine for love

Tokyo Daijingu is located in the Idabashi district in central Tokyo. It is a branch of Ise Shrine, a famous shrine in Mie Prefecture, and was founded in 1880. Tokyo Daijingu is a small shrine, but if you step inside, you will be surprised by the continuous stream of people coming to pray for blessings. Especially during New Year and Valentine's Day, it is full of couples and singles who come to pray for their love to come true. This is because this shrine is outstanding and sacred in love. It is also the first shrine to hold a wedding ceremony according to the Japanese Shinto sect. If you don't believe it, just look at the shrine gate. There is also a heart-shaped cutout carved on the gate. In addition to being sacred for love, on the right side of the shrine gate is a small shrine called Iitomi Inari Jinja, sacred for business and success. If you are here, stop by and pray for all your blessings. For those who love amulets, this shrine has many items to choose from to worship, keep as souvenirs, or as valuable gifts. In particular, the top item is the "Enmusubi" love-binding amulet, which will bind your love and destiny. Each item costs 700 yen.
