Tokyo-jissha

The Tokyo-jissha encompasses ten significant religious structures positioned strategically around the former Edo Castle, each featuring traditional gates, guardian statues, and purification areas.

Emperor Meiji selected these ten specific shrines during the Meiji Restoration period to establish spiritual protection points throughout the capital city of Tokyo.

Each shrine in the Tokyo-jissha network maintains distinct religious ceremonies, collecting stamps in goshuincho books represents an essential practice for pilgrims visiting these locations.

Visitors can acquire a special stamp book at any of the ten shrines and collect individual stamps, which cost between 300 and 500 yen per location.

The collection includes Nezu Shrine with its ancient structures from 1705, Kanda Shrine for business success, and Tomioka Hachiman Shrine, known for sumo connections.
