On both sides of the approach to the shrine with a view of the worship hall, there is a pair of stone top dogs, which always protect the gods. This powerful and dignified komainu was dedicated in 1938 by a then-famous Japanese confectionery shop called "Oki Kyodo" in Hondori 5-chome, Shimada, the year after the start of the Sino-Japanese War (China Incident), and was carved by Shimada stonemason Masuno-chohei. The right pedestal is carved with the words "Takeyu" and the left pedestal is carved with "Nagahisa", and it seems that it is a top dog dedicated to pray for Japan's victory and peace, and the safety of those who went to war.

Oi Shrine is the water god of the Oi River, and there is a kami pond with clear water in its precincts, and the pure water from an old well flows into the precincts. The water temperature is almost constant all year round, so it feels cold in summer and warm in winter. The first pond was built in the precincts of the shrine in 1915, about 100 years ago, to commemorate the 300th anniversary of the relocation of Oi Shrine to the land of Shimada, and was built around the current parking lot on the side of the shrine office by the services of the veterans at that time. The current pond was moved to the center of the precincts in 1985 during the commemoration of the 60th anniversary of Emperor Showa's accession to the throne, and it is more magnificent in size and scenery than the previous pond. Now it is indispensable in the precincts, and it is a beautiful water scenery of the water god.

The sight of the morning sun shining over the sea of clouds and Mt. Fuji was very beautiful.

It was 🔥🗻🔥 a beautiful sunrise sky

The beach of Izu Shimoda is like a mirror with smooth sand. The spring sea will be quiet and carve the memories of the two of you in the sand.

It is one in the neighborhood park The sunrise sky was beautiful.

This is a station that is still in use today called "Okuoikojo Station" floating on a lake deep in the mountains of Shizuoka Prefecture. On this day, after the typhoon has passed, the water shines blue, and the scenery of the railway running over it is truly spectacular. The light is also shining at the right time, and it is one that I would like everyone to see.

The sight of the duck chicks swimming desperately is both cute and powerful.

A day that took a big cap cloud.

Shizuoka City, Shizuoka Prefecture, a place where you can enjoy Mt. Fuji and the Shinkansen at the same time. It is said to be a rare curve place for the Shinkansen.

Fujinomiya City, Shizuoka Prefecture, near Asagiri Highland. Diamond Fuji in the morning sun.

In Fuji City, Shizuoka Prefecture, you can see Mt. Fuji reflected beautifully even after rice planting, but the picture is slightly distorted by the surface tension on the rice. After all, the aim is a short period before rice planting.

At the end of G.W., you can see Diamond Fuji as the sun sets from the paddy fields of Gotemba City, Shizuoka Prefecture. Reflected in the rice paddies where rice planting has been completed, the luxurious sight of Double Diamond Fuji is only for a moment. It's a really nice sight.

Before rice planting, clear skies, and no wind, you can see the splendid water mirror of Mt. Fuji in Fuji City, Shizuoka Prefecture. A luxurious sight for only a short time until the wind begins to blow.

This is a photo of when I went to "Toro Ruins" in Shizuoka City, Shizuoka Prefecture for a university report! The Toro Ruins are a settlement and paddy field ruins from the Yayoi period, and are designated as a national designated historic site! !️ Why don't you go to this place where you can suddenly see ancient buildings in a residential area? 😊

This photo was taken at iZoo on the Izu Peninsula. There are few people in the Kanto suburbs, and depending on your ingenuity, you can take beautiful photos. You can enjoy it when you go out to play with children up to infants ~ lower grades of elementary school! There was a spot here where the aquarium reflected like a mirror, and I was able to take a beautiful picture.

Unmanned station floating on the lake Okuoikojo Station is famous as an unmanned station. It is a ☺️ superb view that I want to visit once. From November to February, the starry sky is famous, so I took a train only on Saturdays and Sundays. Since it was ranked second in the country, it is a recommended secret spot.

Hamamatsu, Shizuoka Hamamatsu Garden Park It is an observatory and wisteria. The sky is beautiful I've been healed ♪ #Spring Con #Photo Contest #Hamamatsu Garden Park#Observatory#Wisteria

Hamamatsu, Shizuoka Hamamatsu Garden Park I have seen nemophila and wisteria in the large garden. There are seasonal flowers, so take a walk It's fun, isn't it? ♪

We filmed the tea girl dance on the way at the Kanaya Festival. Due to the influence of Corona, this was the first time in four years that it was held. Shimada City has many other events, and I was able to create an image of a lively city. I would also like to participate in other events.

I filmed the collaboration between SL and cherry blossoms near Ieyama Station on the Oigawa Railway. There are other famous cherry blossom spots around here, so I posted it as a place to visit once.

I went to the Higashi-Oyama Kawazu Cherry Blossom Festival in Hamamatsu City, Shizuoka Prefecture. I posted it because I thought that the scenery was more fantastic at night than the daytime, and that the rape blossoms were blooming and the contrast was good.

Mt. Fuji and rows of cherry trees 🌸🌸🌸 in Fuji City Cherry blossoms in the morning sun "Spring in Japan is beautiful" Fuji, Shizuoka

It is a collaboration between SL Sakura of Oigawa Railway and cherry blossoms in full bloom. It was a scene that I happened to encounter on a random car trip, but I was really lucky because the collaboration between the Oigawa Railway and the cherry blossoms was a subject I wanted to photograph someday!

Izu Peninsula 1 photo from Tsumekizaki Lighthouse From this time of spring the Milky Way begins to be visible from midnight to early morning Since there are no lights around Tsumekizaki, you can see more stars than in urban areas. It's very dark, so don't forget your flashlight when you visit!

Mizume cherry blossoms of Ushidai in Shimada City, Shizuoka Prefecture Edohigan Sakura standing dignified in the tea field The figure emerging from the darkness with the morning sun is very fantastic.

It is a terraced rice field of Ishibe in West Izu that I stopped by when I went on a family trip to Izu. The sky was blue, the weather was good and the cherry blossoms were beautiful.
