Omori Sanno Hie Shrine: A Sacred Spot in Tokyo

Located in Omori, Ota Ward, Tokyo, the Omori Sanno Hie Shrine⛩️ is a revered spiritual site. Situated in the Sanno area, a well-known upscale residential district in central Tokyo👀, this shrine is affectionately called "Sanno-sama" by locals. As you walk along the main street towards the Sanno area, you'll notice stairs and a torii gate on the left side of the road. Proceeding further, you'll be greeted by large guardian lion statues and a magnificent wooden shrine building reconstructed after World War II. Despite being rebuilt post-war, the shrine exudes a historical aura, reflecting the dedication of those involved in its restoration. Next to the main shrine building, you'll find a small Inari shrine labeled "Sanno Inari" and a kagura hall. Despite its proximity to the station, the area is serene and tranquil, with a refreshing atmosphere😌. Shrines and temples in the heart of Tokyo often have a timeless quality, creating a mysterious and captivating ambiance. ————————————— 📍Location: Omori, Ota Ward, Tokyo 【Access🚗】 About a 6-minute walk from JR Keihin-Tohoku Line "Omori Station" —————————————
