Ketawakamiya Shrine / Gifu
Ketawakamiya-Shrine / Gifu

On a trip to Gifu with my family.
This shrine is famous for appearing in the movie "Your Name". After passing through this torii gate and climbing a little mountain road, there is a shrine. The air was clear and I had a spiritual experience. And on the way back, I took this photo when I went through this torii gate. I can still remember the green of the mountains and rice fields and the blue of the sky. I was so moved that I can't put it into words.

Wow what a cool sight! I've been out to Nagatoro and Chichibu and went on a riverboat ride and I think I remember the guy pushing the boat saying something about there being icicles there during the winter. I'd love to go back and see it sometime as this looks really amazing. Also we wanted to try the kayaking in Nagatoro as well since the water was too low when we went and the boat we rode on couldn't go as far downriver. I guess they have some skiing there as well, I'm not sure if it's connected to the ropeway at all, but that's another cool thing to do in the area. The mountain is really beautiful and I think there's probably a good amount of cherry blossoms if you go in the spring. I'd like to explore Chichibu more though as I hear there's a pilgrimage there where you can see temples and shrines and stuff.

Chichibu City, Saitama in winter
"Icicle of the Thirty Hammers" near the mouth of the three peaks

The icicles I saw for the first time were different from the documents and videos
It gave me a fantastic impression somehow.
It was normal to feel cold, but somehow I felt warmth.

Asakusa is a sacred place 😊 for the anime "Sarazanmai" "Sarazanmai" is an anime that was broadcast on Fuji TV's "Noitamina" frame from April ~ June 2019. It is an original anime work by director Kunihiko Ikuhara, who worked on "Revolutionary Girl Utena" and others. "Sarat!" used as a decisive line is an 🐸 amane that tends to be said. In the work, there are many sightseeing spots in Asakusa that actually exist! Kaminarimon, Matsuya Ginza, Tool Street, Hanayashiki, Kappabashi Kotaro Statue, Azuma Bridge, etc. ... Therefore, I have photographed Azuma Bridge when I made a pilgrimage to the Holy Land before and the cat that appears in the work, so I would like to introduce 🐱 it. In the article cited, you can see the tool street shopping street that appeared in the work, and at the end, you can see the "Kappabashi Kotaro Statue"! The details were written in the article, so I will omit them here The "Kappabashi Kotaro Statue" comes out as the main place where the main characters gather, Actually, it was suddenly in the middle of the tool street shopping street, and I almost missed it w🥒 ◎Photos1~5 "Azuma Bridge" appears every time as a place where the masters fight in the main story, and becomes the stage for important scenes After the pilgrimage to the Holy Land, I happened to have a chance to go nearby last year, so when I saw it, the color had changed ... 😭 It was maintained and clean, but I was a little shocked because the previous red was mysterious. But the view of the river from the bridge was great, it reminded 😂✨ me of the last time. I would like to go again when the world calms down a little more. I haven't visited all the holy places, so I want to ☕ go to coffee heaven next. Even if you don't know "Sarazanmai", Asakusa has many things to see. I think 😊 it's fun to stroll around the paths and shopping streets.
