Shiba Daijingu shrine (Tokyo) : Ise Grand Shrine in TokyoThis shrine was founded in 1005. It enjoyed generous protection from the Tokugawa Shogunate and garnered a large following as the “Ise Grand Shrine of Tokyo.”It is just a short walk from Hamamatsucho Station or Daimon Station, and Zojoji Temple is also nearby.
The Daradara matsuri Festival is held annually from September 11 to 21. When I arrived at the shrine, it was bustling with the sounds of flutes and drums.
The children were carrying a portable shrine.
Afterwards, a large crowd gathered in front of the shrine, and the ceremony took place.
The Daradara matsuri Festival is also known as the Ginger Festival. In the past, a great deal of ginger was grown in this area, so it was offered at the shrine during festivals.
Ginger has a detoxifying effect. For this reason, it became a lucky charm for warding off evil.
