Smaller Ebisu Shrine

With the plethora of shrines and temples in the area, this one of the more easily accessible shrines. If you go to any Ebisu shrine during the second week of January, it will be in festival mode...

ご祭神は蛭児大神（蛭子大神）、少彦名命、天太玉命で旧村社とのことです。十日えびすの際は賑わいますが、それ以外はひっそりしています。最寄駅からは少し離れています。駐車場はありません。境内には地車（だんじり）稲荷とも呼ばれる榎木神社があります。大阪近辺では、西宮神社、今宮戎神社と並び称されるえびす神社です。

南森町から程近いところにある戎神社です。蛭子大神（えびすのおおかみ）」を祀ります。境内には榎木神社もあります。十日戎（とおかえびす）が有名で大賑いになるそうですが、当日は誰もおらず静かに見学できて良かったです。
