Shiba Daijingu Shrine

Shiba Daijingu Shrine was built in 1005, more than 1000 years ago.

Since same gods as Ise Shrine (Amaterasu Omikami and Toyouke Omikami) are deified, it's called Ise in the East.

Visiting Ise Shrine was one thing to do in a life, but it's hard to do since it's expensive and time consuming. This shrine became popular among Edo people instead of visiting Ise Shrine.

This shrine is in the territory of "Me-gumi", one of 48 fire fighters teams in the city of Edo.

"Me-gumi" became famous after fighting against Sumo wrestler.
