Although the date of Mizoguchi Shrine's founding is unknown, the shrine has a long history and is widely revered as one of the most respected shrines in Kawasaki City, with "Amaterasu," the deity enshrined at the Jingu Shrine in Ise, as its deity. The shrine is known for various benefits such as easy childbirth, child-rearing, match-making, family safety, and protection from bad luck, among others. There are sacred trees related to family in the precincts, including a long-life zelkova tree, a father-and-son camphor tree, and a ginkgo tree with a hanging milk root, which attract many visitors.

Gentouan

A one Michelin star kaiseki restaurant to be fully enjoyed. It’s located in a quiet residential neighbourhood a little distance away from Kita Kamakura station. The building, a renoavted old traditional Japanese home that was the former secondary residence of actress Kinuyo Tanaka, is extremely tasteful and very much a hidehouse. The menu is full course only for both lunch and dinner, and completely decided by the chef. Centered on local ingredients from Kamakura, the menu is decided according to the ingredients sourced on the day.Spend a quiet and luxurious time in an old house with the best kaiseki cuisine. It will make for a special trip. Dinner is limited to one or two groups per day, so reservations are required.
