The shrine hosts a unique 45-minute non-stop bean-throwing ceremony during Setsubun, where children are organized by age into safety zones and adults receive treats from shrine maidens since the beans can't reach them.

The current shrine buildings survived both the 1923 Great Kanto Earthquake and the 1945 Tokyo firebombing, making the 1866 main hall a rare example of late-Edo period architecture still standing in Tokyo.
