    Osaka Osakashi Naniwa-ku Motomachi 2-9-19
    This historic shrine in Naniwa is a six-minute walk from Namba Station or a seven-minute walk from Daikokuchou Station. It was known as an old shrine even during the era of Emperor Go-Sanjou (who reigned 1068-1072). Susanoo-no-Mikoto and his wife Kushinadahime are enshrined here, protecting people from evil, helping businesses prosper, and aiding in happy marriages. Three large festivals happen every spring, summer and fall. The summer festival happens every 13th and 14th of July with various events being performed. Also, every third Sunday of January a Shinto rope pulling ceremony is held, which was designated as Osaka's first Intangible Folk Cultural Property in 2001. There are also a variety of other shrines on the premises.

    Compared to the other shrines this one is the most outstanding one! Definitely worth a visit. You can also collect a stamp here. The shrine is usually pretty busy with many tourists taking pictures.

    Osaka Osakashi Naniwa-ku Ebisunishi 1-6-10
    The Imamiya Ebisu-jinja Shrine is a shrine in the Naniwa Ward of Osaka City that is associated with “Ebessan” (Ebisu), the god of commerce. Besides Amaterasu-omikami and Kotoshironushi-no-kami, three other Shinto deities are venerated at the Shrine. The worship of Ebisu is linked with that of Kotoshironushi-no-kami. According to tradition, when Prince Shotoku built the Shitenno-ji Temple, he also had the Imamiya Ebisu-jinja Shrine built to protect the Temple from evil spirits coming from the west. The Shrine is particularly famous for the Toka Ebisu Festival, which is held on January 9th to 11th each year, and which attracts around a million worshippers.

    This is a famous temple for the god, Ebisu. All businesses gather here on the night of Ebisu Matsuri from tattoo artists to hoteliers to pray for a bountiful year. Otherwise you come any other time...

    Osaka Osakashi Tennouji-ku Chausuyamachou 1-8
    This shrine on Mt. Chausu is about 10 minutes' walk north of Tennoji Station, serving every line, and Kintetsu's Abeno Station. Built by Shotoku Taishi at the same time as Shintenno-ji Temple, it is counted among the 7 halls of Shintenno-ji. Long known in Osaka as home of a god who will grant one wish in your lifetime, recently it's also become popular as a spot to feel spiritual energy. They also offer their Hito Yume Prayer service by post, where parishioners write their deepest dream on a thin piece of paper, receive a blessing, and keep it next to their skin until their dream comes true.

    It is a very old shrine which was reportedly built by Shotokutaishi. As it is located on Tanimachisuji main avenue, it is very easy to find. If you walk from JR Tennoji station, it takes 10~15...

    Osaka Osakashi Tennouji-ku Tamatsukurihonmachi 14-90
    This shrine was founded during Emperor Hanzei's reign (406-410) right in Saishoyama Park. This shrine is dedicated to three Shinto gods, Amaterasu, Tsukuyomi and Susanoo. It was once known as the Himeyama Shrine and was where people of Rikuzen Province once went to pray for the god of sealing wind, but has become more commonly known as Sanko Shrine in Miyagi District. In 1908 Himeyama-jinja Shrine and Sanko-jinja Shrine were merged, becoming Sanko-jinja Shrine. It's believed that Saishoyama was where Sanada Maru, a small fort of Osaka Castle, once stood.

    玉造駅からほど近い場所にある神社です。真田幸村が大阪城の出城として陣を張った真田丸の一角にあり、幸村関連の展示があります。銅像もなかなか立派ですし、真田の抜け穴と呼ばれる場所もその近くにあるので、歴史ファンなら興味深い場所です。

    This is a shrine in Naniwa Ward, OsakaCity, famous for thegood fortune with money charm called Tanesen (seed money). The shrine dedicated to Shikitsumatsunomiya Shrine and Okuninushi Shrine that is affectionately called Kizu no Daikoku-san.

This shrine is also popular as a spiritual place for marriage due to the tale of Okuninushi no Mikoto marrying the love of his life, the daughter of Susano, after enduring many hardships.

    近くのスーパーの有料駐車場に車を止めておまいりさせていただきました。境内には木々がすくなく、炎天下でおまいりすると、さえぎるものがなく、少々つらいものがありそうです。敷津松之宮には大きく氏神様、摂社の大国主神社には大きく大黒様と表示されていました。これはあまり見たことが無いパターンですが、わかりやすいので助かります。ご祭神は素盞嗚尊、大国主命です。
