Announcement: Construction of Jissha Gongen Shrine

Asakusa Shrine has announced that it has built a new "Jissha Gongen Shrine" as part of its project to maintain the shrine buildings and improve the grounds. The initiative is drawing attention as an effort to further enhance the historical and religious value of the grounds.

Asakusa Shrine has long focused on maintaining its shrine buildings and improving its grounds, and the construction of this Gongen shrine is positioned as part of those efforts. For the shrine, which has long been rooted in the local community as the guardian shrine of Asakusa, a new attraction on its grounds is welcome news for worshippers and tourists alike.

Details on the background of the construction and the history of the Jissha Gongen Shrine are available on the detail page of the official website. When you visit Asakusa Shrine, which stands alongside Senso-ji as a symbol of Asakusa, why not pay your respects here as well?
