Tsukisamu Shrine

Tsukisamu Shrine, Shinto shrine in Japan

Tsukisamu Shrine is a small Shinto shrine in Sapporo surrounded by old trees and quiet spaces for reflection. The grounds contain a main building, stone lanterns, and several structures where visitors offer prayers and leave small offerings.

In 1884, migrants from Hiroshima Prefecture enshrined a divided spirit of Itsukushima Shrine and Inari in the present-day Fukuzumi area. The shrine was officially licensed as Nishiyama Shrine in 1900, renamed Tsukisamu Shrine in 1903, and moved to its current site in 1918, when it was elevated to village shrine status. The main hall, assembly hall and office were rebuilt in 1971.

The shrine's name comes from Tsukisamu, the district where it stands. Its main festival, originally held on 8 September, now takes place on the second Sunday of September because a primary school stands next door, an arrangement made with the neighbourhood association. The shrine borders Tsukisamu Park, a public park.

The shrine is about a 10-minute walk from Tsukisamu-Chuo Station or Miyano Station on the Sapporo Municipal Subway Toho Line. The Tsukisamu-Chuo-dori 4-chome bus stop, served by Hokkaido Chuo Bus, is a 5-minute walk away. The grounds adjoin Tsukisamu Park, a public park.

The shrine's annual festival was originally held on 8 September, but because an elementary school stands next door, it was moved by agreement with the neighbourhood association to the second Sunday of September. The grounds also adjoin Tsukisamu Park, a city park.
