    Wet beautiful shrine in Hyogo. It’s one of the most gorgeous shrines in Japan as well. This shrine is called Nishinomiya Ebisu, one of the shrines whose name includes “Ebisu”, that empowers business people and make their business more successful. That’s why this shrine is so crowed in January every year! You should definitely visit there. A lot of food carts on the street, a lot of energetic people and energetic atmosphere. You can try so many delicious food on the street and be totally full!! You won’t regret! Just come visit and experience real Japanese culture!!

    A lovely tranquil place to go and get out of the busyness of everyday life. A place to connect with nature and with God. Spacious, parking available and just a really nice oasis. Stop in!

    The Nishinomiya shrine is known for the headquarters of Ebisu: the god of wealth as the enshrined deity that blesses prosperity. Its main event is the Tokaebisu held on 10th of Jan every year where men run to win the title of Fukuotoko (lucky man). It's a three days event where the surrounding streets are blocked off and stalls are set up around the shrine. During this time, people come to return their old lucky bamboo and get a new one to wish for prosperity in their business. Otherwise, it's an everyday local (but big) shrine. Also strongly recommend coming by train during the event as the parking lots around the area jack up their hourly rates during Tokaebisu (and they're not any cheaper normally either...).

    A very peaceful and quiet place absorb Japanese culture and sit amongst the garden and pond. Entry is free and there are very little crowds. Watch the koi , feed the Koi and just contemplate the world or read a good book.

    Awesome place! It's a gorgeous shrine about a seven minute walk from the station. It's definitely worth the time to check out, especially at the end of September. The shrine has a huge festival and the portable shrine is taken out for a walk around Osaka.

    Very famous shrine - one of the most famous in Hyogo Prefecture! The shrine grounds are huge, and the Ebisu Matsuri in early January is one of the shrines biggest festivals.

    Beautiful shrine that worships Ebisu (god of fortune). Definitely a power spot, you can feel it when you step into the shrine grounds. Do note that the shrine services close at 5pm.

👍👍 Great views of both Osaka and Kobe, go with a local or hire a guide because it's a bit difficult to get there as the road is filled with curves.
