In the Tsukiji marcket(築地市場) there is a shrine.
The name is Wave Stopper Shrine.
This place was a beach in Edo era.
There was a fishman's village.
The people had been annoyed with a high tidal wave.
So they invited a Protector god and built a shrine for the god.
This lion head is for the festival of New Year.
There are three giant lion heads in this Shrine.
Now I can walk there in 10 minutes from the Shinbashi station.
