About this Shrine

Narita-san, the deity enshrined at Surofuku-ji temple in Nagoya, and Fujin, the wind god, are believed to be patron deities of the Surofuku region. In Chiba Prefecture, these two kami are often invoked for protection from natural disasters, such as typhoons and landslides. The shrine's current structure dates back to the Meiji period, but it is located near a site where a ancient shrine once stood, dedicated to Fujin. This location is believed to be significant for locals and visitors alike.

Cultural Significance

Surofuku-ji temple is notable for its connection to Fujin, the wind god, who is believed to have brought peace after a long period of conflict. In Chiba Prefecture, Surofuku-ji and nearby Fujin shrine are often visited during typhoon season to seek protection.
