A rare wishing guardian dog is enshrined. If you like cute things, check it out. The red stamp of 々 is also cute. There was a guardian dog and plum design in February. It is usually in a residential area. Minato Pia is close to 5 minutes walk.

It is a famous place in Niigata that appears in ukiyo-e.

It is a shrine that gathered the faith of sailors during the Edo period. I went after visiting the Niigata City History Museum, but it took me a while to get lost (although the distance is close) (in a residential area).

Interestingly, I make a wish by turning the guardian dog, but the direction of turning is different depending on the man and woman.
