About this Shrine

Located in the heart of Tokyo's Toshima Ward, the Hie Shrine is one of Japan's most iconic Shinto shrines. Dedicated to Inari Okami, the Shinto deity of rice fertility and prosperity, the shrine is famous for its thousands of vermilion torii gates that form a tunnel leading to the inner shrine. Visitors often make offerings of purple sweet potatoes and pray for good fortune, success in business, and blessings on their households.

Cultural Significance

In addition to Inari Okami, Hie Shrine also enshrines several other kami, including Fujin Ryujin (Gods of Wind and Sea) and Kusunoki Masakado. The shrine's famous vermilion gates are a notable example of Edo-period architecture.
