JAPAN – TOKYO – The Tour of Fortune 8/8

Discover here the eighth hidden sanctuary of the 7 GODS OF FORTUNE. The fulfilment of desires, success, wealth, health, commercial prosperity, acquisition of properties, good returns… All the seven Gods of Fortune (Shichifukujin – 七福神) in one place!


In the Juban Inari Shinto shrine,
near the lively Azabujuban Shotengai,
there’s a sculpture of the Treasury Boat
(Takarabune – 宝船)
with all the 7 Gods of Fortune on board.

Tradition has it
that the seven Gods arrive in the city on the New Year
and distribute fantastic gifts to worthy people.
Children often receive red envelopes,
emblazoned with the “Takarabune”, which contain money.
