    Kanagawa Pref. Yokohamashi Nishi-ku Miyazakichou 64
    This shrine in Nishi Ward, Yokohama City is also known as the Ise of Kanto. Many worshipers pay their respects here, especially for the first shrine visit of the New Year. In addition to the Shichigosan children's festival and wedding ceremonies, they hold about 30 events a year, including an end-of-winter Setsubun festival on February 3. They also burn used amulets and ritual items in a sacred Otakiage fire and purify used hinaningyo dolls and other items.

    Kanagawa Yokohama-shi Nishi-ku Chuo 1-chome 13-1

    横浜駅から20分以上歩きます。社務所があつて御祈祷・御朱印を扱います。立札を読むと大国主命が素戔嗚命におそわれて火で応戦したら自身も火に囲まれてネズミに救われたそうです。ネズミの像が2体あり、男性は右側のを1回転させると絵があります。像には10円玉が2枚載っていました。説明の通り、回転させました。神社内にはうさぎの食草がはえていません。

    相鉄線、平沼橋駅の陸橋を下りたらすぐに有ります。 水天宮ということで、安産・水難除・火難除にご利益が有ります。 以前、孫の出産時にお参りしました。 無事に生まれてすくすく育っているとご報告することが出来ました。

Kanagawa Areas

around-area-map

Kanagawa prefecture acts as an extension of the Tokyo metropolis that spills over into coastal towns, most notably Yokohama city, heavily populated and known for its Chinatown and seaside attractions. Just the right distance for a day trip out of Tokyo, Kanagawa is home to some of Tokyo’s most accessible beaches, including around Kamakura, best known for its Big Buddha. Visitors can also travel a little farther afield for a weekend at Hakone onsen town.
