History
Yanagiwara Inari Jinja is a beloved Inari shrine nestled in a quiet residential neighborhood of Adachi Ward. Continuing since the Edo period, this shrine has been deeply revered by farmers as a deity protecting the village from flooding of the Arakawa River and bringing abundant harvests. Since the Meiji era, it has also been cherished as a deity of business prosperity alongside the development of commerce and industry, watching over the community's growth. Though small, the shrine grounds are enveloped in a warm atmosphere, and today continue to welcome many visitors who come to offer their daily gratitude.
