Ikejiri Inari Shrine
池尻稲荷神社The Inari Shrine, which is known as Inari-sama to the world, is dedicated to the god of the soul of Uganomi (Uganomi Tamanokami), and it began about 1,300 years ago when the Inari Shrine was enshrined in Fushimi, Kyoto, on the first day of February in the fourth year of Wado. This god is a god of vast virtues that nurtures the growth of five grains and all industries, as indicated by the other name of Inari, which means "rice becomes," so it is worshipped by all kinds of people and is enshrined in shrines and residences all over the country.
The Ikejiri Inari Shrine was founded about 350 years ago in the Ming calendar year (early Edo period) as the birth deity (Ubusunagami) of both the former Ikejiri Village and Ikezawa Village, and has since become the center of communal life and worship in the village. As a folk belief, it has long been said that it is a spiritual experience as "Inari of the fire" and "Inari of child-rearing", and in the collection of essays of the Edo period, there is a strange story that the god of the soil of Ikejiri Village especially protects the clan and children.
At that time, it was solicited in a corner of Joko-in on the banks of the Oyama Highway (now the old road), and not only the faith of the villagers, but also the people from the two highways of Yagurasawa (now the Futakotamagawa road) and Tsukui (now the Ueno bus road) at that time rested at the three teahouses of Kakuya, Tanakaya, and Shigaraki (the origin of the Sangenjaya) and entered Edo. The road down Aobadai Street in Meguro Ward, via the Aobadai Branch of the Bank of Mitsubishi UFJ, and then down the slope to Ohashi, which at that time was said to make farmers cry because of the very steep slope, was devout in the faith of the people who prayed for safety on the way and thanked them, and the fact that there are still many worshippers from afar is a manifestation of the divine virtue from that time.
In addition, the well water (well that does not dry up) in the precincts of Temizusha is known as the spiritual water according to the oracle of the medicinal power of Myojin in Fushimi, Kyoto.
