Traveler highlights
Hakozaki Shrine is the ichinomiya of Chikuzen Province and one of Japan’s Three Great Hachiman Shrines. A legend says a divine wind drove away Mongol forces during the invasions; the shrine is associated with victory and protection from misfortune. It is also revered for the safety of sea travel and overseas journeys. In the grounds, look for designated cultural properties, especially the stone Ichino Torii and imposing Romon gate. The annual Hōjōya festival brings crowds and rows of stalls and sideshows along the approach. Its legends and festivals link the shrine to city life.
