Life

What is Yasui Konpiragu?
Located in Kyoto, Yasui Konpiragu is famous for Enkiri (cutting bad ties) and Enmusubi (binding good ones). It’s not just about breaking up with people—it helps you leave behind bad health, addiction, or general bad luck to welcome a fresh start!

How to Do the Stone Ritual
The highlight is the massive Enkiri Enmusubi Ishi (Power Stone Monument) covered in paper wishes (Katashiro).

Here is the 4-step ritual:
・Write your wish on a piece of paper (Katashiro, ~100 yen donation).
・Crawl through the hole from front to back (cuts bad ties).
・Crawl back from back to front (invites good ties).
・Glue your paper onto the stone.

Tip: The hole is quite narrow! Wear comfortable clothes and be ready to crawl.
