✓ Kubo City Otoken Shrine

Kanazawa Asano River is on the side of the Chaya Street. Just opposite the entrance to Higashi Chaya Street, there is a shrine called "Kubo City Otoken Shrine". Its history can be traced back to the Heian period. At that time, it was called Otoken Daimyojin and was established as a city guardian shrine.

The central market in the Kitagawa area is located near the shrine, and the city extends around the market. Therefore, the shrine is also called the birthplace of the market or the birthplace of the city, which can bless the city's property and prosperity.

It is about a 3-minute walk from the Kanazawa Castle Town Tour Bus, Hokuriku Railway Bus, and West Japan JR Bus "Hashibacho" station.
