Isn’t this a talisman unique to motorcycle shrines?
This amulet is the perfect size to carry on your bike.
It would be a good idea to get one to pray for safe travels.
Access to Oshika Shrine
If you are coming from the Kawagoe area in Saitama Prefecture, use National Route 299 to access Oshika Shrine.
As you head west on Route 299, you will see a large red torii gate on your right, so pass under it.
Oshika Shrine is at the end of a slightly steep slope.
The top of the climb is gravel, so if you’re going by bike, be careful not to get stuck.
Just to be safe, I think it’s a good idea to choose a spot on hard dirt when you stop.
