KANAZAWA OHKA

Asanogawa Inari Shrine Nestled near the serene Asano River in Kanazawa’s historic Higashi Chaya District, Asanogawa Inari Shrine is a peaceful Shinto sanctuary dedicated to Inari, the deity of prosperity, agriculture, and good fortune. Recognizable by its striking red torii gates and fox statues — messengers of Inari — this small but charming shrine offers a quiet retreat from the bustling streets. Locals often visit to pray for success in business and personal well-being. Whether you're taking a leisurely walk along the riverside or exploring nearby geisha teahouses, a stop at Asanogawa Inari Shrine adds a touch of spiritual calm and cultural depth to your Kanazawa journey. This lovely, small shrine is located just a short walk from Kanazawa Ohka. If you’re nearby, it’s definitely worth a quick visit.  

 The other day, I received some flowers from a friend. Her grandmother grows them in her field. They were very fresh and beautiful. Knowing that they were grown with such care, I arranged them with even more love. I hope her grandmother will be happy to hear that.

 I started a blog for KANAZAWAOHKA. I'm still inexperienced and exploring a lot of things, but I'd like to write about my daily happenings so that you can enjoy reading them. Please read it!
