About this Shrine

Addo Shrine, located in the city of Saitama, is a Shinto shrine that enshrines the god of the soil and fertility. According to legend, the shrine was founded by the legendary god Susanoo no Mikoto, who fell asleep beneath a large tree after drinking too much sake. The shrine's main hall was rebuilt in 1893, but the original structure dates back to the Edo period.

Cultural Significance

This shrine is famous for its beautiful gardens, which are said to have been inspired by the legendary sleeping place of Susanoo no Mikoto. The shrine also hosts several festivals throughout the year, including the Susanoo Matsuri in July.
