Just a 3-minute walk from Ichinomiya Shrine lies Matsuyama Old Street Wagashiya, a century-old shop famous for handmade matcha mochi and black sugar rice cakes. The rustic wooden interior reflects Edo-era charm. Nearby, Shinjyo Yatai Izakaya opens daily in the evening, serving fresh tempura and Matsuyama’s specialty: Tosa yellowtail sushi made with fish from local waters. Both are located directly along the shrine’s main approach path—perfect for a post-visitation snack. Book a dining package via HopeGoo for added convenience.

Matsuyama Castle View Hotel partners with Ichinomiya Shrine to offer the Morning Blessing Journey, held every Saturday at 10 AM. Guests enjoy a private purification ceremony led by a Shinto priest, followed by a unique Omamori bracelet and blessing scroll. Afterward, stay guests may participate in a calligraphy meditation session, writing sacred texts in ink on washi paper within the hotel’s tranquil garden. This intimate experience is exclusive to hotel guests and requires advance HopeGoo via the HopeGoo app—limited to 12 participants per session for a deeply personal spiritual moment.
