The guardian god of the Tsukiji market, a god from the sea. Japan travel

The shrine is located at the far end of the Tsukiji Outside Market and the shopping district selling fresh seafood.
The site used to be the sea. During the reclamation work in the Edo period (1603-1867), the embankment was repeatedly washed away by rough seas, making the area extremely difficult to access.
At that time, a white light shone through the waves at night. At that time, the body of the Inari shrine drifted through the waves at night, glistening white.
When he enshrined it, the waves subsided and the construction work was carried out with ease, and the land was safely reclaimed.
It is a mysterious legend, isn't it?
It is a mysterious story from the Edo period, but it is so pure and clean that it seems to have been true.
What is interesting is that there are a number of mounds, such as the "Sushi Mound," where people give thanks and make offerings to living creatures.
This god is the guardian deity of the Tsukiji market.
Please come and feel it!
