Top 10 Shrines & Temples in Nerima City
Nerima Otori Shrine
Founded around 1317–1319, enshrining Yamato Takeru as guardian of Nerima — the November Tori-no-Ichi fair is Nerima's signature winter tradition, echoing the area's history as an Edo-era daikon radish farming village.
Enmyoin Temple (Nerima-ku)
A Shingon Buzan temple founded in 1574 and incorporated as a station on the Edo 88-temple pilgrimage — the precinct's Edo-period six Jizo statues are designated Nerima-ku cultural properties.
Kitano Shrine (Oizumi)
Founded in the Tensho era (1573–1592), enshrining Sugawara no Michizane as Oizumi's Tenjin shrine — spiritual anchor for Edo-era land-reclamation pioneers, with plum blossoms filling the precinct each February.
Tomb of Hanawa Yasutomo
The traditional grave of Hanawa Yasutomo — son of Nobunaga's retainer Naomasa — killed in the 1580 Ishiyama Hongan-ji siege, resting in Geshoin temple of the Tajima-zan group, a quiet memorial to Oda clan retainers in Nerima.
Hikawadai Hikawa Shrine
Founded in 1457 by Ota Dokan — the same year he built Edo Castle — when he invited a spirit from Omiya Hikawa to guard the castle's north; the place name 'Hikawadai' derives from this shrine, which still holds Edo-era stone monuments.
Nerima Castle Site

Shakujii Hikawa Shrine
Founded in 1394 as the guardian of Shakuji Castle by the Toshima clan — after Ota Dokan stormed the castle in 1477, the shrine survived along with the legend of Princess Teruhime who drowned in Sanpoji Pond.
Shoganji Temple (Nerima-ku)
A Shingon Buzan temple said to date to the Muromachi period, spread across the Musashino plateau near the Shakujii River headwaters — Muromachi-era stone memorial tablets in the precinct are among Nerima's finest historical materials.
Aizomiin Temple (Nerima-ku)
A Shingon Buzan temple founded in 1580 and a pilgrimage station on the Edo 88-temple circuit — cherished for Aizen Myoo's matchmaking blessings, with six Jizo and Koshin pillars designated Nerima-ku cultural properties.

A Hachiman shrine said to have been founded in the Kamakura period as guardian of Nakamurabashi — every September the community carries the mikoshi through the Nakamurabashi streets in the annual grand festival.
