Sumiyoshi Jinja

The Shrine has been admired by the people since ancient times as a patron of maritime security and safe travel. There are several small shrines in the shrine, where the Dragon Shrine, the god of commerce, entertainment and learning, is particularly popular.

As the birthplace of the Japanese shrine, the Fukuoka Prefecture has a long history and is well known. Because it is surrounded by the sea on three sides, the Sagiyama shrine is mostly dedicated to protecting the safety of ordinary fishermen. Of course, the gods in the shrine no longer only protect the safety of navigation, if you want to pray for blessings, you can also worship religiously.

The Sumigi shrine is considered to be the origin of the national Sumigi shrine, and is believed to be the god of navigation security and guarding ships. It seems to have some origin with the cat, because all the ornaments are the cat god.

Fukuoka has a lot of gentlemen all over the city center. It's also good to stop by on the way out on the way to sleep and enjoy a calm feeling.

Our company is an engishiki naisha (a shrine recorded in a book created in ９０１～９２３ in the Engi era), and is counted as one of the seven Sumiyoshi shrines nationwide. It is one of the oldest shrines that was founded and prayed by Kennai no Sukune, and was revered as the best shrine in Tohoku. The main shrine, which was rebuilt in the year of Kanei １８ (AD １６４１), was designated as an important cultural property of the prefecture in the year of Showa ３３.

It's not a huge shrine, but it's a quiet space that makes you forget that it's in the middle of the city of Hakata. I feel that the air is beautiful, but I have no heart. My mother was sick and said that she was surprised to hear that she was surprised to hear that she was surprised to hear that she was surprised to hear that she was surprised to hear that she was surprised to hear that she was surprised to hear that she was surprised to hear that she was surprised to hear that she was surprised to hear that she was surprised to hear that she was surprised to hear that she was surprised to hear that she was surprised to hear that It may be self-indulgence, or it may be that those who believe will be saved.
