## Visit Samuhara Shrine

Activities

---

---

#### Join Japanese worshippers coming from across the city and beyond to this small shrine in the business district to receive an amulet with special powers.

Visit Samuhara Shrine to find a spot for quiet contemplation amid close-packed buildings in one of Osaka’s commercial areas. Walk under the stone torii and sacred rope to join local residents viewing the site or stopping in front of the main sanctuary for a moment of worship. Expect to see lines at the entrance to the shrine.

Many Japanese locals and visitors consider the shrine a power spot and come to purchase a special ring-shaped amulet and red stamp that provide protection. The handmade charms are accessible irregularly, but stamps are generally available at any time during normal hours.

If you’ve visited other Japanese shrines, the shape of the entrance and building will look familiar, but its colors may be a surprise. Unlike other shrines with bright red gates and decorations, Samuhara Shrine is understated, using shades of gray and brown for the stone gates and the building itself. Notice the subtle decorative touches of red maple leaves, pruned green shrubs, gold sashes and white lanterns with Japanese symbols.

The site has many carvings but very little English. Ask someone who can read Japanese to help or use a character recognition phone app to understand the engraved and printed messages.

Find the Samuhara Shrine in the Nishi ward of Osaka, about 1.5 miles (2.4 kilometers) from the center of the city. The location of this peaceful site next to offices for riot police is a bit ironic. Walk or use public transportation to get here, as there is no dedicated parking. The site is about a 6-minute stroll from Awaza station and 15 minutes from Hommachi or Yotsubashi stations. While in the area, walk north from the shrine to enjoy the colorful flowers and shaded pathways of the gardens of Utsubo Park.

Someone is generally present at the shrine to provide red stamps during normal business hours from Monday to Saturday.

The stand out about this hotel is the people. Everything with the property is excellent. But a hotel is about people. The people that care for you here are so lovely and warm that they feel more like family. You really look forward to seeing them every day and engaging them on the traditions and culture of Japan.
