The Jishu Shrine is famous for a stone for making a wish, which is said to bring about the fulfillment of love if the visitor can safely cross the gap between two sacred stones 10 meters apart with his eyes closed.
It is said that if you succeed the first time, your love will come to fruition that much sooner, the second time it will be slower, and if you reach it with the help of others, you will be bound by the advice of others. Please give it a try!

The Enkiri-Enmusubi monument at Yasui Konpira Shrine, famous for cutting off bad marriages, is said to cut off bad relationships and bring good marriages together.
The many ema (votive tablet) and katayo (paper dolls) wishing for good luck may seem scary, but it is said that if you walk through the shrine from the front, bad luck will be cut off, and if you walk through from the back, good luck will be brought to you. If you put a katashiro on the shrine and make a wish at the end, it is said that good karma will come to you, so you will feel refreshed both physically and emotionally.

Good fortune is also good luck!

After passing through the monument of Enkiri-en-musubi, you are encouraged to draw Omikuji (fortune). There are two types: a green omikuji (300 yen) and a black omikuji (100 yen). The green omikuji contains a numerical value of the degree of bad karma, and if the number is too high, you can go back through the Enkiri-Enmusubi monument again.
The fortune is folded with colored paper and is colorful and cute inside.
By all means, let's break off bad karma and return home with good karma.

The shrine is famous for Daikoku-san, said to bring good luck in marriage, and the sacred stone Okame-ishi.
In particular, it is said that if you stroke the ogame-ishi stone and make a wish, your wish will come true within a year.
The Okameishi stone has been touched so much by everyone that it now glows black. It seems as if it has that much power, so by all means, make a wish while patting it. It is sure to make your wish come true.

Also good marriage goods!

It is the Imamiya Shrine, which is rumored to be a place for good marriages and, what a surprise, a place to ride on a ball.
It is said that the Cinderella story of Otama's success in life is the basis of this belief, and that all women pray at the shrine, even if they do not think they will be successful in the world.
The deity worshipped here, Hachimanzahime-no-Mikoto, is also famous as the god of long-distance love because of his proximity to Tanabata no Orihime-sama. People who are in long-distance love are also welcome to visit!

The talisman is also a ball of luck!

Shimogamo-jinja Shrine, famous for its ability to beautify both body and soul, is another shrine famous as a god of marriage.
After dedicating the mirror ema, go to the Aioi-sha Shrine to pray for a marriage match. The red and white string of the ema should be tightened as strongly as the amount of your wish while making a wish, and then dedicate the ema (so that it does not get torn!). (Don't tear the string!).

All of the amulets are reputed to be cute!
