About

Although the date of Mizoguchi Shrine's founding is unknown, the shrine has a long history and is widely revered as one of the most respected shrines in Kawasaki City, with "Amaterasu," the deity enshrined at the Jingu Shrine in Ise, as its deity. The shrine is known for various benefits such as easy childbirth, child-rearing, match-making, family safety, and protection from bad luck, among others. There are sacred trees related to family in the precincts, including a long-life zelkova tree, a father-and-son camphor tree, and a ginkgo tree with a hanging milk root, which attract many visitors.
