About this Shrine

Located in the city of Yokosuka, Kanagawa Prefecture, Ōsaka Shrine is dedicated to the kami of good luck, prosperity, and safe passage at sea. The shrine's architecture reflects its historical significance as a major port town, with a vermilion torii gate that has been preserved since the 18th century. Visitors can experience the tranquil atmosphere by strolling through the shrine's beautifully maintained gardens.

Cultural Significance

Ōsaka Shrine is connected to the mythology of the Shichida-no-kami, a group of seven sea deities who were believed to bring good fortune and protection to sailors. During the annual Hakosakae festival in July, visitors can experience traditional performances, food stalls, and games.
