Landlord deities (地主神) are a type of tutelary deity worshipped in the East Asian cultural sphere.[1]
They are minor gods who are considered to be of lower rank than Tudigongs and City Gods.
In some East Asian cultures, when people move to a new place, they ask for the permission of the landlord deity before settling in.
