The Wakihama/Nishikihama coast area has been known since ancient times as a scenic spot with rich fishing grounds and white sand and green pine trees, and due to its proximity to the capitals of Nara and Kyoto, the fishing grounds were established by the government office called ``Naizenji'' who was in charge of meals in the imperial court.

It is said that it was decided that the products would be delivered to the city government office.

Even after it was enshrined together with Takaokami Shrine, which is said to be the god of water, during the Meiji period, it is still affectionately known as ``Wakihama no Ebessan'' by the people of the Senshu region. Toka Ebisu is visited by nearly 40,000 people every year, including people who buy lucky bamboo leaves. On the same day, the ``Saito Daigomaku'' is also held, and many people practice ``fire walking'' by walking on charcoal fires in hopes of good health.
