Introduction

Ozaki Shrine is a shrine in Kanazawa, set in a corner of the old castle town, worshipped by residents for warding off misfortune, inviting fortune and safe childbirth. Its grounds are quiet under old trees, and its rites continue the local faith — a calm small shrine on a tour of the castle town's temples and shrines. Compact in size, it is easy to visit while touring central Kanazawa, and can be combined with Oyama Shrine, Omicho Market and nearby sights, taking in the faith and life of the Kaga castle town.
