About this event

Hakusan Shrine in Ochiai, near Tama Center, is said to have been established in 1618, when the Hachioji magistrate Komiyama Hachibei and local villagers brought its deities from Shirayama Hime Shrine, the head shrine of Kaga Province. Much of its land was given up for the Tama New Town development, and in 1983 it moved into a new gongen-style hall, becoming the guardian of the New Town. For New Year, charms and amulets are offered from 10 pm on Dec 31 to 2 am on Jan 1; from 2 am to 8 am you can pray but nothing is offered. On Jan 1-3 the counter opens 8 am-6 pm, and on Jan 4-6 from 9 am to 5 pm.
