Namba Yasaka Shrine is a hidden tourist attraction in the downtown area. The entire shrine is not large, and people mainly pray for "golden luck", "good fortune" and "victorious luck". The stone lions with bloody mouths open are as if they are going to swallow you up. In fact, the stone lions of Yasaka Shrine are meant to swallow up the bad luck and suffering of the worshippers. The mouth of the lion hall is a space for offering a stage, and many festivals are held here. The shrine is about 5-10 minutes away from Namba Station. If you are on your way, you may as well come and feel the power of the stone lions.
