History
Enshrined in Ikeda, a city enriched by the trade of fine textiles, this shrine has long been the guardian deity of merchants. Throughout the ages I have witnessed, the prayers for commercial success offered here are among the most fervent. Those engaged in the textile and clothing trade have held deep faith, and many business proprietors visit annually to seek divine blessing.
