Passing through the torii gate from Hongo-dori, you come into view a magnificent two-story gate called Suishinmon Gate. The Suishinmon Gate was built in 1975 to commemorate the 50th anniversary of Emperor Showa's accession to the throne. Made entirely of cypress, its vibrant vermilion and gold leaf jump out at you. Looking closely, you will see the fierce and beautiful four gods of Suzaku, Byakko, Seiryu, and Genbu on the outside. The inside is decorated with wonderful carvings based on mythological motifs. The vital sacred horses on both sides are also a sight to behold. It is so majestic that it captivates you every time you see it, and it is a gate worthy of Kanda Myojin, the main shrine of Edo. It is definitely worth a visit. #Tourist Spots with a Feel of History #Visiting Shrines

#0yentravelFebruary2025 While walking through the streets of Tokyo, I took a little detour to Kanda Shrine. When I passed through the large vermilion gate, a calm atmosphere spread out, as if the bustle of the city from before was a lie. As I walked towards the main shrine, I saw magnificent buildings and stone statues that gave off a sense of history everywhere. Kanda Shrine is famous as a god of prosperity in business and luck in games, and there were also a few businessmen and tourists. After praying, I took a leisurely stroll around the grounds. The wind was blowing and the trees were swaying pleasantly. It was a little discovery to find such a quiet and quaint place in the middle of the city. It was a wonderful time to forget about my usual busy schedule and refresh myself. If I come to Tokyo, I'd like to stop by again.

Please check the website to see if it will be held this year. Kanda Myojin, the main guardian deity of Edo, has a history of about 1,300 years. There are many cherry trees planted in the grounds, and you can enjoy the cherry blossoms at Suishinmon Gate and within the grounds. This time, with the cooperation of NAKED, INC., a creative company that has lit up famous places in Japan, a cherry blossom light-up event was held, so I went for the first time in a while. Admission is free. I took photos of the cherry blossoms in the daytime before they started. The cherry blossoms are beautiful enough as they are, but NAKED's production made them even more bewitching and shining. #KandaMyojin #Tokyo #Shrine #ChiyodaWard #Event #CherryBlossoms #0YenTripFebruary2025

#東京行程 Kanda Myojin Shrine is such a fun mix of traditional and modern Japan! It’s a beautiful historic shrine, but what makes it extra cool is its connection to anime, gaming, and even technology. People from Akihabara (which is super close by) come here to pray for success in their businesses, and many tech companies and IT workers visit for blessings. The ema (wooden wishing plaques) here are unique—many are decorated with anime characters drawn by fans! The shrine itself is stunning, with bright red-orange buildings and golden details. I even bought a lucky charm for my phone, since they have ones specifically for protecting electronics! After visiting, I walked to Akihabara for some shopping and found the cutest anime merch. If you’re a fan of geek culture but also love exploring traditional Japan, Kanda Myojin is the perfect mix of both worlds!

#Valentine's Day 2025 The main deity of Kanda Shrine is Daijiki-no-Mikoto, and one prays for a good relationship, harmony between husband and wife, etc.; Sukunahiko-no-Mikoto can pray for career development, good luck, and health, etc.; and Taira-Masakado-Mikoto can pray for the elimination of misfortunes and disasters. The shrine was burned down during the Great Tokyo Earthquake in 1923, and was also affected by air raids during World War II, leaving only the shrine's fireproof materials intact. The main points of visit here~ On the left side of the shrine, you can see a statue of Okuninushi-no-Okami (だいこく様) guarding Ichinomiya. This largest stone statue in Japan was built in 1976. It is 6.6 feet tall and weighs about 30 tons. "Okuninushi Okami" is also the deity of "Kanda Myojin". It is said that it is very effective in praying for marriage!

Along the way, I passed through some small alleys and could feel the atmosphere of Tokyo's old streets. ⛩ Entering the Sacred Grounds of Kanda Myojin 1️⃣ Majestic Vermilion Torii Gate As soon as you enter the shrine, the first thing that catches your eye is the magnificent vermilion torii gate. Passing through the torii, you immediately feel a different atmosphere from the city, as if you have traveled back in time to the Edo period of Japan. 2️⃣ Vivid Main Hall and Three Deities The main hall of Kanda Myojin is also a vermilion building, contrasting beautifully with the clear blue sky, making you want to stop and admire it. The shrine enshrines three main deities: • Daikokuten: The god of wealth and commercial prosperity, many entrepreneurs and merchants come here to pray for business success. • Ebisu: The guardian deity of fishing and commerce, also symbolizing good luck and prosperity. • Taira no Masakado: A legendary warrior said to protect health and ward off evil. Many entrepreneurs, stock investors, and even IT industry professionals come here to seek "victory luck" and "financial luck," which is why Kanda Myojin is known as the "Shrine of Commercial Prosperity." 🎌 Trip Summary Kanda Myojin is a historic shrine that preserves the traditions of the Edo period while incorporating the modern anime culture and IT industry characteristics of Akihabara. Here, you can not only feel the historical depth of Tokyo but also discover a unique blend of subcultures. If you are interested in Japanese history, business fortunes, or even anime and IT culture, this place is definitely worth a visit!
