Enoshima Shrine

This is one of three shrines on the island and each one is dedicated to a different kami or spirit. Also enshrined on the island in the small building next to the Shrine in the photo is one of the Seven Lucky Gods that I mentioned in a previous post. That God is known as Benzaiten and   it is said that she rules over everything that flows: water, luck, music, poetry and serpents amongst other things. Serpents are said to be her servants.
