Hatagaya Hikawa Shrine?
Hatagaya Hikawa Shrine is said to have been founded at that location in the Warring States Period, long before Hatagaya was a village.
It is an important shrine that has been enshrined as the guardian deity of the Hatagaya area and has also been carefully worshipped by the villagers as the deity of their birthplace.
The annual Hikawa Shrine Festival is held in the fall, with stalls lining the streets and portable shrines and floats parading around the Hatagaya area. The festival has become a major event that has made the community even more vibrant and has been passed down from generation to generation.
