GPS art of a snake drawn at one of Chiba’s most popular Hatsumode spot🐍✨
This GPS art course takes you to the area around Hakuja Benzaiten, a Chiba’s spot associated with snakes, where you can draw a snake, the animal of the Chinese zodiac.
Hakuja Benzaiten, located in Ichihara City, Chiba Prefecture, is a shrine in a rice paddy field area on the delta of the Yoro River. Since the existence of Hirata Village was confirmed in the Edo period (1603-1867), the shrine seems to have functioned as a guardian deity for the community since that time. The shrine features two white snakes on the torii gate.
Since 2025 is the Year of the Snake, Hakuja Benzaiten may become a popular spot. Please try it during your first visit to the temple🐍✨
