After crossing the slightly lesser-known Kanda Fureai Bridge and walking along Yanagihara Street towards Showa Street, you'll find Yanagimori Shrine.

This shrine, established by Ota Dokan, is one of the three Mori Shrines in Edo, incorporating the word "Mori" (forest) in its name.


There are wooden benches that can accommodate four people and benches for two.


You'll find the Fukuju-shin's Tanuki (raccoon dog) statue here. It seems like it might bring good luck for safe childbirth too!

Here's a video of someone actually visiting Yanagimori Shrine.
So, why not consider using this as a relaxing rest area near Akihabara Station?
