About this Shrine

Tottori's Ebisu Shrine is dedicated to Ebisu, the Shinto god of prosperity and good fortune. Located near the city's port area, Ebisu is often invoked by fishermen and traders seeking successful voyages and bountiful harvests. The shrine's architecture blends traditional Japanese styles with modern elements, reflecting its long history dating back to the Heian period (794-1185 CE).

Cultural Significance

As one of Japan's oldest shrines, Ebisu Shrine has strong connections to Japanese mythology. According to legend, Ebisu was a humble fisherman who became a kami after being chosen by the sun goddess Amaterasu. The shrine is also famous for its unique bell-ringing ceremony, which involves the striking of large bronze bells to ward off evil spirits and bring prosperity.
