Very pleasant shrine located not too far from the train station. The bunny motif certainly makes this unique among the many shrines throughout Japan. There is a small parking lot and a public toilet. I was pleasantly surprised by the rather large park area on the east side of the grounds.

Shrine near Urawa Station. It's a little interesting for having no Torii and having bunnies around the shrine instead of the usual lion dogs. Be warned, this shrine is well known for refusing to give you a goshuin if your goshuin-cho is from a temple or contains temple stamps. Prepare a brand new goshuin-cho if you are interested in collecting their's.

This shrine has lots of rabbits because it's named after the moon where rabbits are supposed to live.

It's an abnormal shrine, having rabbits opposed to a tauree gate, with absolutely lovely grounds. Is a great stop off the standard tourist path.

Don’t bother going to this shrine to collect their goshuin if you have a goshuincho from a temple or temple stamps in your book. They’re insanely strict and will straight up refuse to put their goshuin in your book. As far as I know this is the only place in japan with this policy. Cute place nonetheless.
