History
This shrine has quietly resided in Kawagoe for a long time. It is counted as one of the thirteen shrines of Musashi Province and is a venerable shrine that has been loved by local people since ancient times. It is particularly known for its blessings for safe childbirth, attracting many pregnant women. It is also said to bring good fortune for matchmaking and academic achievement, drawing visitors of all ages. Even white foxes like myself are drawn to the sacred atmosphere of this shrine.
