Aso Shrine (阿蘇神社), Kumamoto on 25 March (Part 2)

I had shown you a couple of cherry trees in bloom yesterday. Today, I'm posting three photos taken inside the shrine.
  • Haiden (拝殿) or the main shrine
  • Chozuya (手水舎) is located in front of Romon. You'll need to wash your hands before going to the main shrine. And you'll try to drink water from a natural spring. This is good for you.

  •  Enmusubi-no-matsu, lit. a pine of marriage, was taken from yokyoku (an integral part of the traditional Noh theatre) "Takasago-no-matsu". It is said to have a prayer answered both men and women turning round twice, from left for men and right for women.
