[Jiyugaoka] The Ultimate Power Spot to Calm Your Mind: Kumano Shrine

Kumano Shrine, located about a 5-minute walk from Jiyugaoka Station ⛩
It is said to have started when a branch spirit was brought and enshrined during the active Kumano pilgrimage to Nachi Kumano Shrine 😌
The blessings include fortune and prosperity, good relationships and safe childbirth, protection from misfortune, and traffic safety!
It's rare and interesting that you can choose your blessing starting from the purification water 😳
I went at night, so I couldn't get a goshuin (shrine stamp), but you can receive one during the shrine office's business hours 🫶
There is also a Great Purification Ceremony on June 30!
Kumano Shrine quietly stands amidst the bustling streets of Jiyugaoka and is cherished locally as a "power spot where wishes come true" ☺️❤️
The quiet precincts surrounded by greenery feel like an urban oasis 🌿
Just walking along the approach envelops you in a mysterious atmosphere that lightens your heart.
When you visit Jiyugaoka, be sure to stop by between shopping and café hopping. It will calm your mind and make your step toward tomorrow lighter 🕊️💫
