In Kyoto Prefecture, on the way to Kiyomizu-dera Temple, you pass a very small shrine, and the gardens in the shrine are very delicate and beautiful, and when you walk in, the whole atmosphere is a huge contrast with the outside environment. In my opinion, this place is a space with a classical atmosphere that is more representative of Japan and Kyoto, and I believe that people many years ago enjoyed the same scenery as us.

At Kawagoe Kumano Shrine. Even though it was October, there were strips of Tanabata decorations. Among them, a strip of paper called "World Peace" caught my eye, so I took a picture of it. It is precisely because of this era of wars and conflicts that the culture of Tanabata of praying may be ingrained in our hearts. Because Japan is a country that has learned greatly from past wars, I pray that Japan will not be involved in a war.

A water‑welcoming ritual took place on the Saigawa River flowing through Azumino. At the confluence of the Saigawa, Takasegawa, and Hotakagawa rivers, a Shinto ceremony was held to pray for a bountiful harvest for the year, the prevention of water disasters, and the development of tourism. We give thanks for the blessings of water that flow down from the Northern Alps.
