Hikawa Shrine (Omiya)
氷川神社
Yaegaki Shrine
Yaegaki Shrine celebrates the mythological first marriage in Japan — where Susanoo built a bridal house for Kushinadahime after slaying Yamata no Orochi. The Mirror Pond fortune-telling, where visitors float paper prayers to divine romantic fate, is enormously popular.
The Mirror Pond (Kagami no Ike) love fortune: visitors place a coin on paper and float it. If it sinks quickly and stays close, love will come soon and from nearby.
