Raske fakta: Shrine hosts an annual festival where locals carry a portable shrine through the streets for nearly 4 kilometers. Over 1,200 vibrant paper lanterns illuminate the grounds during the evening ceremonies, creating a magical atmosphere.
Høydepunkter: Rows of 300-year-old cedar trees line the main path, their thick trunks creating a natural cathedral effect. Visitors can touch a sacred stone believed to grant wisdom, a tradition observed by thousands each year seeking clarity.
Insidertips
- Wear comfortable shoes for the gravel paths and slight elevation changes.
- Photograph the lanterns at dusk for spectacular shots of light and shadow.
- Avoid weekends if you prefer a peaceful visit.
- The adjacent small museum offers interesting artifacts but can be skipped if short on time.
