Before you go

Yasui Konpira-gu is known for its "Enkiri Enmusubi" (cutting bad ties, forming good ties) stone: the monument is covered in katashiro paper slips bearing wishes, and worshippers crawl through the hole in its center holding one. The shrine never closes, so both the shrine and the stone can be visited at any hour.

  • The amulet counter sells omamori and goshuin, generally 9:00–17:00
