Shrine / temple History

With its name literally meaning “protection from the waves”, Namiyoke-Inari Jinja was specifically built in this area to protect locals from water-related disasters. Also at this shrine, you can pray for good luck, business prosperity and construction work safety (which as you can tell, are all very closely related to Tsukiji market).
