Walk the cedar-lined approach and pay respects at Fuchu's grand shrine
About this spot
The grand shrine of Musashi Province, said to have been founded in 111 AD (the 41st year of Emperor Keiko). Located in the center of Fuchu City, the approach lined with towering cedar trees on both sides is widely known as a characteristic sight of Fuchu. The grounds retain the structure of the "Roku-sho Shrine," with the main hall and seven subsidiary shrines arranged in line, and simply walking slowly through this solemn atmosphere allows you to feel the depth of history. The "Kurayami Festival" held every May in May is also famous as one of Tokyo's largest Shinto festivals. This is a fitting place to pay your respects before tonight's fireworks and pray for the safety of the day.
