History

Byakko

Hataoka Hachiman Jinja is enshrined in Hatanodai. Hachiman is known as a god of war and enshrines Emperor Ojin, who has been revered as the guardian deity of this region since ancient times. The place name "Hataoka" suggests this is a historic land where samurai once planted their flags. Despite its proximity to central Tokyo in Shinagawa Ward, the shrine maintains a serene atmosphere. Through the virtues of Hachiman, it bestows the strength to face challenges and overcome difficulties in life. As the community's tutelary deity, it continues to watch over the daily peace of residents.
