Travel Festival 'Sarutahiko Festival' and Special Goshuin Event

Prayers for safe travels and divine virtues of opening paths.
This is the festival of the sacred stone of Sarutahiko Myojin, related to Minamoto no Tametomo, one of the models for Hikaru Genji, the protagonist of "The Tale of Genji." We celebrate Sarutahiko Myojin, pray for the removal of misfortunes, safe travels, and wonderful connections and guidance along the path. There will also be the customary offering of Sarutahiko coffee. Additionally, a special Goshuin event for the Sarutahiko Festival will be held, with the artwork created by the colorist Akiko Ueno.
