I visited Hakusan-hime Shrine, a shrine in a residential area of Kozonecho that looks a little like a Western-style building!

The White Shrine Building at “Hakusan-hime Shrine”
Here’s the white shrine building that looks like a Western-style house. White is pretty rare, isn’t it? ✨
It looks like something you’d see around Kobe’s former foreign settlement or the Ijinkan area. 😊
This is what it looks like from the side.
Even the blue candle stands behind the guardian dogs started to look like something Western-style!
Here’s the map for Hakusan-hime Shrine ↓
The address is 4-7-22 Kozonecho, Nishinomiya City, Hyogo Prefecture.
The Deity of “Hakusan-hime Shrine”
The deity enshrined here is Kukurihime-no-Mikoto, who is said to bring blessings for matchmaking, safe childbirth, fertility, good fortune, and more.
Surprisingly, it’s the same deity as “Rokkosan Shrine,” the shrine located at the highest point in Nishinomiya!
In Closing
“Hakusan-hime Shrine” was a stylish, Western-style-looking shrine!
By the way,
There wasn’t any water running at the purification basin, but there were bottles of gel lined up instead. 😂（They’ve got infection prevention covered!）
