1km東に羽田空港があるにも関わらず、飛行機の騒音や振動はほとんど感じない、閑静な住宅地に静かに佇む神社です。現在の羽田空港に元々あった神社で、堤防に開く穴から入り込む水害より田畑を守るための神社として崇められてきました。『穴を守る』という名前から、江戸時代より遊女達の信仰を集めたともされています。 現在の位置に移築されたのは太平洋戦争後のことで、境内の建物は比較的新しいものです。南側の鳥居から境内に入ると、整然とした印象を受けますが、奥に行くと他の稲荷神社でも見られるような小さな鳥居や狐の像が雑多に並びます。境内の入り口と奥とで全く違う印象を受けるでしょう。境内には、『必勝』『出世』『繁栄』等様々なご利益にちなんだ小さな社がいくつも点在します。羽田空港が近くにあるからか『航空神社』という小さな社もあり、空の旅の安全のために祈願に訪れる人もいます。 空の玄関口に近いわりに休日でも訪れる人はそれ程多くないため、のんびりと境内散策するのにピッタリかもしれません。 The shrine enshrines quietly in a quiet residential area, where the noise and vibrations of airplanes are barely perceptible, despite the fact that Haneda Airport is 1km east. The shrine was originally located in what is now Haneda Airport, and was revered as a shrine to protect the fields from flooding caused by holes in the embankment. It is also said to have been worshipped by prostitutes since the Edo period because of its name, "protecting the hole". It was not until after the Pacific War that the shrine was moved to its current location, so the buildings on the grounds are relatively new. Entering the precincts from the south side of the shrine through the torii gate, you will get an orderly impression, but towards the back, you will see a miscellaneous array of small torii gates and fox statues that can be seen in other Inari shrines. You will get a completely different impression from the entrance and the back of the shrine. The shrine precincts are dotted with many small shrines that are dedicated to various benefits such as "victory," "success," "prosperity," and so on. Perhaps because Haneda Airport is nearby, there is also a small shrine called "Aviation Shrine" where people come to pray for the safety of air travel. Even though it's close to Haneda Airport, there are not that many visitors even on holidays, so it may be perfect for a leisurely stroll around the precincts.
