GPS art of a dragon drawn at one of Tokyo’s most popular Hatsumode spot🐉✨
This GPS art course allows visitors to draw the Chinese character for “dragon (龍),” the animal of the Chinese zodiac, around Ebara Shrine, a Hatsumode (New Year’s visit) spot in Tokyo that is associated with dragons.
Ebara Shrine, located in Kita-Shinagawa, Shinagawa Ward, has long been known as the “Dragon God of Shinagawa. Samurai families such as the Genji, Tokugawa, and Uesugi clans worshipped at the shrine. The Dragon God is a symbol of success and development because of the image of a dragon ascending to the sky. He is more beneficial than any other deity for those who aim to improve their work and financial fortune and success.
Although it is a popular spot for worshippers, it is expected to be very crowded in 2024, the year of the dragon. Please try to visit as a New Year’s visit to avoid the density🐉✨
