A 2km long path lined with beautiful zelkova trees

The approach to Hikawa Shrine stretches 2 km from north to south. It is a beautiful approach to the shrine where approximately 650 trees, including zelkova trees, chinquapins, hackberry trees, and cedar trees, are planted. There are three gates, ``First Torii,'' ``Second Torii,'' and ``Sanno Torii.'' The second torii gate was donated to Meiji Shrine and is 13 meters high, making it the largest existing wooden torii in the Kanto region.

Benefits of Musashi Ichinomiya Hikawa Shrine

①Enmusubi

Enmusubi is the act of making connections between men and women. Praying to be together with someone who you like is also part of the Enmusubi. Hikawa Shrine is said to have blessings for marriage. This comes from the fact that Susanoo-no-Mikoto and Inadahime-no-Mikoto, who are enshrined here, that are a couple.

It is said that if you visit Musashi Ichinomiya Hikawa Shrine, you can get healed from illnessea. This is bicause, the fact that ``Nihon Takemyo'' was injured, visited Hikawa Shrine, and immediately recovered from his illness.

Hikawa Sando(street) is long, so there are shops along the way. I hope you enjoy not only the scenery and the shrine, but also the journey to the shrine.

This building, which was renovated from the former Omiya Library, holds events about once a month, and also has a small plaza that is convenient for people with small children. There is also a kitchen truck, making it perfect for lunch. This is a place you should definitely stop by on your way.

The NPO AEA conducts volunteer activities in which children and their families work together to guide guests from overseas. During local traditional events and events, children can actually converse in the English they have learned and interact with people from different cultures, improving their communication skills and developing rich personalities. I would like to play a role in English education that fosters the ability to think for oneself, solve problems, and communicate to others.
