About this Shrine

Located in Tokyo, Sengen Jinja is a Shinto shrine dedicated to the god of the sea and storms, Amaterasu Omikami's daughter, Fujin. It is believed to be one of the oldest shrines in Japan, dating back to the Heian period (794-1185 CE). The shrine's architecture reflects its connection to the sea, with a distinctive torii gate resembling a wave. Visitors can experience the shrine's tranquility during cherry blossom season and participate in rituals honoring Fujin for safe navigation.

Cultural Significance

Fujin, the kami enshrined at Sengen Jinja, is often invoked by sailors and fishermen seeking safe passage. During the New Year (Oshogatsu) festival, visitors can participate in a ritual to ensure good luck for the coming year.
