Mitakisan Fudoin is famous temple as enshrined Sendai Shiro.
Sendai Shiro: As you browse the shops of Sendai, you may see on some of their walls an old photograph of a smiling young man with cropped hair in a striped kimono. This is Sendai Shiro, an actual person from the late 19th Century who was thought to bring good fortune to the businesses that he visited. He spoke few words and was always smiling. He would wander about town, playing with small children and visiting shops. For some reason, any shop that he visited seemed to do very well, so that eventually storekeepers began to actively invite him to their shops and to give him food and items. Sometimes Shiro would refuse to visit a store; such stores were said to eventually go out of business. Sendai Shiro photographs and other good luck charms are popular today, especially with small business and store owners, and these are available at the Mitakisan Fudoin temple in the Clisroad Shotengai (Shopping Arcade).
The cache is hidden at entrance of pray to Mitakisan Fudoin, please visit with your own pen.
三瀧山不動院は仙台四郎安置の寺として有名です。
仙台四郎: 仙台のお店をまわっていると、壁に坊主頭でストライプ柄の着物を着て微笑んでいる若者の古い写真を見かけると思います。それが仙台四郎です。19世紀後半に実在した人物で彼は福の神で彼が訪れたお店は繁盛すると考えられていました。市中を歩きまわって人に金品をもらったりしており、人に危害を及ぼすことはなく、子供が好きでいつもニコニコと機嫌よく笑っていたといいます。彼が立ち寄る店は必ず繁盛するとされたため、どこでも無料でもてなされた。四郎は素直な性質であったが、気に入らない店には誘われても決して行かなかったといいます。仙台四郎の写真やアイテムは今日ポピュラーなものとして、とりわけ小さなお店等に商売繁盛のおまじないとして飾られています。三瀧山不動院は仙台のクリスロード商店街にあります。
キャッシュは三瀧山不動院のお寺の参拝口に設置しました、ペンを持参して訪れてみて下さい。
