Location
Miyoshino Shrine
The Miyoshino Shrine is said to have been rebuilt in 1624, as the guardian shrine of the Kawagoe Castle, by Lord Sakai Tadakatsu. The shrine’s Tenjin, or defined spirit honored in the shrine, is well-known from the children’s song, Tohryanse (Pass on through in Japanese). Because the shrine was located within the castle grounds, it was difficult for ordinary people to visit, and the song refers to a narrow passage leading to the Tenjin.
