[2025 Chichibu Attraction] Travel Guide for Chichibu Shrine (Updated Jul)

#Japan Attractions Chichibu Shrine is located in the suburbs of Tokyo. You can buy a one-day ticket for Seibu Railway for ¥1,000 to visit the railway attractions. Chichibu Station is the last stop. It only takes 80 minutes from Ikebukuro. It is very convenient. When you come to Chichibu, you must visit Chichibu Shrine. I saw a cherry tree in bloom inside the shrine. It turned out that the pink beauty can be found everywhere during the cherry blossom season. There is also a century-old giant tree in the shrine, which should be a tree spirit. A girl in kimono attracted many people to take pictures. It is indeed a very Japanese-style picture. The shrine enshrines the "Three Monkeys of Genki". Confucius said, "Do not look at what is inappropriate, do not listen to what is inappropriate, and do not say what is inappropriate". Japanese culture is also famous for the three monkeys of "Do not look, do not listen, and do not say". The three monkeys we saw this time are encouraging people to look more, listen more, and speak more in modern society, so as to have better development. What a good cultural implication🤗 In addition, Chichibu Shrine was rebuilt by Tokugawa Ieyasu. Because he worshipped tigers, tiger statues were carved around the shrine, and 🐯 was used to symbolize the parent-child relationship. "When a baby is close to the skin of the parents, when a child is close to the hands of the parents, when a teenager is close to the eyes of the parents, and when a young adult is close to the heart of the parents", what a good cultural experience❤🌹

Chichibu Shrine is famous as a power spot. It is a popular spot in Chichibu, Saitama, which is gaining popularity due to the influence of anime and TV commercials. The inner shrine building inherits the architectural style from the early Edo period and is designated as a tangible cultural property of Saitama. When I visited last fall, a chrysanthemum exhibition was being held. Address: 1-3 Banba-cho, Chichibu City, Saitama Prefecture 368-0041 #trip2022 #Chichibu

A relaxing walk around Chichibu Shrine, fascinated by history and beautiful sculptures Located in the center of Chichibu City, Saitama Prefecture, Chichibu Shrine is a historic shrine with a history of about 2,000 years, and is also known as one of the "Three Shrines of Chichibu." The author visited on a weekday morning. Upon stepping into the shrine grounds, I felt my mind naturally calm as I was surrounded by a tranquil and pure air that was hard to believe was in the middle of the city. Particularly eye-catching are the group of sculptures on the main shrine building, which are said to have been ordered to be rebuilt by Tokugawa Ieyasu. Just looking at the sculptures, which are filled with humor and prayers, such as the "Tiger of Childbirth and Child-raising" and the "Three Healthy Monkeys," is enough to soothe your heart. It is free to visit and has good access. It is recommended for solo travelers to immerse themselves in history, or for couples to spend a relaxing time together. It was a memorable shrine that is perfect as a starting point for a walk around Chichibu.

Chichibu Shrine ⛩️ 𓂃◌𓈒𓐍 𓂃◌𓈒𓐍𓂃◌𓈒𓐍𓂃 Chichibu Shrine was founded when Chichibuhiko enshrined his ancestor during the reign of Emperor Sujin, the 10th emperor of Japan. Chichibuhiko is the 10th generation descendant of Yatogamikane, who was appointed as the first kuni no miyatsuko of Chichibu Province. This is a popular shrine that most people stop by when they visit Chichibu. This time, I visited the shrine after touring various places in Chichibu and learning about the festival at the Chichibu Festival Hall. It was close to closing time, but the shrine was lit up🔦, so I experienced a different atmosphere at Chichibu Shrine than usual. I watched the shrine building close and my trip came to an end.

I went to Chichibu Shrine in December, and the autumn leaves were very beautiful 🍁 It is a power spot in Chichibu, and I recommend visiting it as a triple pilgrimage along with Mitsumine Shrine and Hodosan Shrine! The sacred ginkgo tree was large and impressive, and I felt like I got energy from it ✨ I visited on the day of the Chichibu Night Festival on December 2nd and 3rd, so it was crowded, but lively and very good!

Chichibu City, Saitama Prefecture. 6 minutes walk from Seibu Chichibu Station. Mitsumine Shrine, Hodosan Shrine, and Chichibu Shrine are known as the Three Chichibu Shrines, and all of these shrines are very powerful. Chichibu Shrine enshrines Yatogamikane no Mikoto, the god of learning and good fortune, and the ancestor of the Chichibu development. During exam season, students visit the shrine and write prayers for success. The benefits of the shrine are academic success, prayers for success, safety of the family, prosperity in business, and prosperity of descendants. There are also goshuin and fortune-telling slips. This time, I tried drawing a water fortune. When I put it in water, the letters mysteriously appeared. I visited during the day on a weekday, but it wasn't crowded and I was able to visit at a leisurely pace. It's a very healing power spot. Please visit. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 📍 1-3 Banbacho, Chichibu City, Saitama Prefecture #besttrip2023 #Saitama #Chichibu #Shrine #Powerspot #Japan #ShrineStamp #KantoPowerspot

3 minutes walk from Chichibu Station on the Chichibu Railway. This is where the Chichibu Night Festival, one of Japan's three major float festivals, takes place. I've heard that the festival is very grand. Chichibu Shrine is surrounded by a forest of oak trees, where it is said that owls return. There was a magnificent ginkgo tree in the shrine grounds. It had a strange trunk shape. The main hall has colorful sculptures and is very beautiful. There were Ebisu and Daikoku in front. I visited in the morning, so it wasn't crowded, and I had to wait a few minutes to get my goshuin written. The people who were praying seemed to have made reservations for groups. It seems that you can make reservations for prayers by time, even on the day. The water flowing in the ponds in the shrine grounds was very clear, and goldfish seemed to be floating. There was a water fortune telling service. The main approach to the shrine is a tourist spot in the Chichibu city area, and there are many cafes, restaurants, and other places where you can enjoy Chichibu cuisine. If you visit this area, say hello to the gods protected by the locals and you'll have a great trip. 1-3 Banbacho, Chichibu City, Saitama Prefecture, 368-0041 #ChichibuShrine #Chichibu

It was recently renovated and is being promoted. However, Mitsumine Shrine seems to be the main castle of Chichibu's power spot. It seems that the best time to go is early in the morning, during the warmer months. The bus ride takes more than an hour, and the approach to the shrine is long. There is a wolf legend at Mitsumine Shrine. The guardian lions are wolves 🐺. Ah, I see. The atmosphere of this mountain. It reminded me of Princess Mononoke. There is also a copper mine. The red, blue, and black design of the eboshi hat is a symbol of the shrine. However, the people there are quite rough, so I'm not sure if I'll return. ? The people here don't seem like much of a tourist spot. ...
