Ohatsu Tenjin: The Shrine of Love
Ohatsu Tenjin: The Shrine of Love
Ohatsu Tenjin is renowned as a shrine dedicated to love, and one of the reasons for its fame is its connection to Chikamatsu Monzaemon’s famous play, "The Love Suicides at Sonezaki."
"The Love Suicides at Sonezaki" was inspired by a real-life double suicide that took place in the "Tenjin Forest" of this shrine. Chikamatsu Monzaemon adapted this tragic event into a puppet play, which became hugely popular at the time, drawing many visitors to the shrine.
In July 1972, a stone monument titled "The Love Suicides at Sonezaki: The Sacred Site of Ohatsu and Tokubei" was erected to commemorate the lovers who died for their love. Since then, the shrine has seen a steady stream of visitors paying their respects.
Named after the play's heroine, Ohatsu, the shrine is affectionately known as Ohatsu Tenjin. In 2013, it was officially designated as a "Lover’s Sanctuary."
Today, Ohatsu Tenjin remains a beloved destination for couples who come to pledge their eternal love and for those seeking good fortune in their romantic endeavors. If you wish to pray for success in love, why not visit Ohatsu Tenjin?
