At Chiyoho Inari Shrine, you can pray for various benefits, including good business and household safety, but also for less common things, such as winning the lottery. With about 120 shops lined up, the road in front of the shrine is bustling like a festival everyday. There are over 2 million visitors per year. During a visit to the shrine, fried tofu and candles are offered and the prayer style is also rather unusual, compared to other shrines in the region.
