Enoshima Shrine is a Shinto shrine in Enoshima, Fujisawa, Kanagawa, Japan. The shrine is dedicated to the worship of the kami Benten.[1] Enoshima-jinja consists of three shrines, Hetsuno-miya, Nakatsuno-miya and Okutsuno-miya.
Per legend, 12th century Japanese ruler Hojo Tokimasa visited the shrine to pray for prosperity, and there received a prophecy from a mysterious woman, who also left behind three scales, which became his family crest.[2]
