About this Shrine

Ebara Shrine, located in the heart of Tokyo's Minato ward, is a Shinto shrine dedicated to the god of rice, sake, and fertility. Founded in 1866, it is one of the oldest shrines in Tokyo. The shrine's architecture is typical of Edo-period (1603-1867) designs, with a vermilion torii gate and a traditional honden building. Visitors can experience the serene atmosphere and explore the shrine grounds, which include several smaller shrines dedicated to various kami.

Cultural Significance

Ebara Shrine is closely associated with the god of rice, Sannen no kami, as well as other kami such as Tsukuyomi and Inari. The shrine hosts various festivals throughout the year, including the Ebara Shrine Festival in May, which features traditional dance performances and food stalls.
