Description

Established in 1627, this Koto City shrine serves as the main grounds for the Fukagawa Hachiman Festival. The less-traveled venue offers an uncrowded alternative to Tokyo's busier landmarks, featuring an imposing torii gate, statues, and carved granite columns set within small landscaped pockets. The space also takes on a notable atmosphere during nighttime visits.
