[Odawara power spot] Hotoku Ninomiya Shrine where the sunlight is pleasant

Odawara City, Kanagawa Prefecture. 15 minutes walk from Odawara Station. If you walk towards Odawara Castle, you will find Hotoku Ninomiya Shrine, a shrine dedicated to Ninomiya Sontoku Kinjiro, who is famous for being a boy reading a book while carrying firewood on his back. The shrine is lush with greenery and is very relaxing. The sunlight is soothing, so you will want to stay there forever. It is also a power spot, and is said to bring good luck in academics, business prosperity, protection from misfortune, and good fortune. You can also get fortune slips, amulets, and goshuin. There is also a cafe next to Odawara Castle. At Kinjiro Cafe, which is based on Ninomiya Sontoku, the deity enshrined at Hotoku Ninomiya Shrine, I had a good luck caramel cappuccino, which seems to bring a lot of good luck. The sweetness was just right and it was delicious. The terrace seats were beautiful and relaxing with greenery. It is a very relaxing shrine, so please visit it at least once. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Honest review Photogenic: ★★★★★ Overall rating: ★★★★★ Comments: It was a weekday afternoon, so there were few people and I was able to visit at my own pace. 📍8-10 Jonai, Odawara City, Kanagawa Prefecture, 250-0014 🚃 15-minute walk from the east exit of Odawara Station #Sightseeing in Kanagawa #Hotoku Ninomiya Shrine #Kanagawa #Odawara #Shrine Shrine tour #Shrines and temples #Temple stamp #Travel #Cafe #Cafe tour #japantrip #japan#Power spot
