Okunitama Jinja

Just a quick 20-minute train ride from Shinjuku, the world&rsquo;s busiest train station serving more than 2 million people every day, lies Fuchu City in the suburbs of Western Tokyo. &nbsp; Having a population of around 260,000 people, Fuchu City is often confused with its larger neighbor, Chofu City, and is located between Kokubunji to the north and the Tama River to the south. In parts residential, in parts industrial, Fuchu is most famous as the location of Okunitama Jinja, one of the five major Shinto shrines in Tokyo, the JRA Tokyo Racecourse, Japan&#39;s largest horse race course, and Fuchu Prison, Japan&#39;s largest correctional facility.

It was originally a post on the Koshu Kaido &ndash; one of the famous roads that radiated from Tokyo and was often travelled during the Edo period since the 1600s. &nbsp; Fuchu City is full of many old traditions and new possibilities just waiting for us to discover. Come, join Rachel to explore Fuchu together!

Okunitama Jinja is one of Japan&rsquo;s oldest Shinto shrines, with history dating back almost 2,000 years. This shrine is actually older than the existence of Fuchu City itself! Located down the street from Fuchu station, it is considered one of the five major shrines of Tokyo, with the others being the Meiji Jingu, Yasukuni Jinja Shrine, Hie Jinja, and Tokyo Daijingu. Thanks to Fuchu&rsquo;s historical position as an important center of politics, economics, and culture as part of the Musashi Kofuku province during the medieval ages, many shrines and temples were established here. &nbsp; Okunitama Jinja was, and still is, the largest and one of the most sacred shrines in this area. Rachel will be meeting with Ryo Sawatari-san, who is a Shinto priest and the son of the chief priest of the Okunitama Jinja. Experience a private Shinto purification ceremony and gain exclusive access to this thriving historical landmark&rsquo;s sacred inner shrine -- only available in this special tour! Won&#39;t you come meet a Shinto priest and learn more about the Okunitama Jinja together?
