ภาพรวม
Chiryu Shrine is an Engishiki-listed shrine (shikinaisha) in Aichi Prefecture, regarded as the Second Shrine (ninomiya) of Mikawa Province. Its founding legend ties it to Yamato Takeru's eastern campaign. First documented in 851 CE, it was long revered as one of the "Three Shrines of the Tōkaidō" during the Edo period. The shrine's most distinctive tradition is its reputation as a protector against venomous snakes (mamushi). Amulets (fuda) from Chiryu Shrine were historically carried by travelers and farmers throughout eastern Japan — from the Kantō region to the San'in Coast — as protection against snakebite. The Chiryu Festival (知立まつり), held every May in odd-numbered years, is designated a National Important Intangible Folk Cultural Property. It features dashi floats carrying puppet performances (karakuri-ningyo) — a rare surviving tradition of Edo-period craftsmanship.
