If you go through the Senbon torii gate of Fushimi Inari Taisha Shrine, you will find the Okusha Fushimi Inari Taisha Okusha Shrine Worship Hall.
From there, you will start to proceed to Mt. Inari, past the pine trees that have risen roots, and if you continue for a while, you will find the Kumataka Shrine in front of the middle of Mt. Inari.

I bought a candle at the bamboo shop just across the street and made a request to Kumataka Shrine.

If you clap twice in front of the new pond in front of the company, the sound will echo from the pond.
By the speed at which you can hear the sound, you can tell when your wish will come true.

By the way, it seems that if you go in the direction where the sound came, your wish will come true.

Kumataka Okami is said to be the god of competition, and it seems that there is a benefit to win the game, so why not come here when you have an important game?

The Karamon gate at the entrance of the Ninomaru Palace is a highlight of the gorgeous carvings on the roof. Various creatures such as shochiku plums, cranes, peonies, and butterflies are livelied. The seasonal nature and events are also attractive. Last year, "NAKED FLOWERS 2022 -Sakura-World Heritage Nijo Castle" was held during the cherry blossom season, and "NAKED FLOWERS 2022 Autumn World Heritage Nijo Castle" was held during the autumn foliage season, and a projection mapping show and light-up event were held. ◆Nijo Castle◆ 【Address】〒604-8301 541 Nijojo-jocho, Nijo-dori Horikawa Nishi-iru, Nakagyo-ku, Kyoto 【Access】 By train from Kyoto Station Take the JR Sanin Main Line and get off at Nijo Station and walk a short distance Get off at Nijo Ekimae on the Tozai Municipal Subway Line and walk a short distance By bus from Kyoto Station Take city bus No. 9 and 50 to Kyoto Station ⇒ get off at Nijojo-jo-mae and walk a short distance

#It is read as Kijima Zaki Amaterasu Soul Shrine (Konoshima ni masu Amaterumi Tamajinja). Because there is a "sericulture shrine" that worships silkworms in the precincts, it is also called #silkworm shrine. The movie village is located in Uzumasa, which is said to be an area where the power of the migrant #Qin clan was great. Since it was the base where the chief of the Qin clan lived, it became an Ultra C reading of thick and the rest of the Qin clan's ego, written as Uzumasa. Sericulture is one of the things that Mr. Hata brought to Japan. That's why there is a shrine dedicated to silkworms. Originally #Kijima Shrine (Konoshimajinja)." In the "Succession Japan Kijima" it is written as "Kijima God". It is recorded that "(Fushimi) Inari, (Ishimizu) Yawata and Kijima are not visited by people," and that people were constantly visiting. There was also a pond of fresh water here. Currently, it is said that he has moved to the forest of Shimogamo Shrine. Of particular note is the three torii gates stacked #Three Pillar Torii In the historical note in the company office, "This is said to be a remnant of the fact that Jingkyo (Netrian Christianity) came to Japan and was associated with the Qin clan." There is. There is a theory that Buddhism and Christianity were newly introduced to the Japan during this period, and there was a dispute as to which central government should adopt. Mr. Qin seems to have been promoting Christianity. Prince Shotoku, who was supported by Qin Hesheng, the chief of the Qin clan, was born in a stable, and there is an episode that is like Christ. Because there are many mysteries, it is a deep shrine where you can create delusions.

Inari, past the pine trees that have risen roots, and if you continue for a while, you will find the Kumataka Shrine in front of the middle of Mt. Inari. Mt. Inari is the most powerful (in a good or bad way) power spot I've ever been to, and it made me feel like I was wandering in another world. So it's a shame to turn back here, but I'm climbing for the time being. Even if I turned back here, it was one of the places where I was satisfied. I was surprised that the new pond was on such a mountain, but it was very large and very beautiful reflecting the trees. This pond is also called Kodamagaike. In the old days, there was a legend that when searching for the whereabouts of a missing person, you could clap your hand toward the pond and get a clue in the direction the echo returned. Recently, anything you are looking for is OK, and I saw on the Internet that you can find out where the people who need to make their wishes come true. And Kumatakasha! I bought a candle at the bamboo shop just across the street and made a request to Kumataka Shrine. When I clapped twice in front of Shinike, I heard a sound from the back on the right. My friend was surprised that it was different because he heard a sound from the left side. By the way, if you go in the direction where the sound came, your wish will come true. I'm not sure, but I went along the road normally. Kumataka Okami is said to be the god of competition, and it seems that there is a benefit to win the game, so why not come here when you have an important game? I would like ? to come here again someday.

I was able to take Sunday off for the first time in a long time, so I went to Himeji Castle, a World Heritage Site. There was an event called "Kagamihana Suigetsu", and I waited for about 50 minutes for a long line in the strong wind, and the water swayed in the wind so much that Himeji Castle could not be photographed, and the use of a tripod monopod was prohibited, and the shooting time was only 4 minutes, so it was a dense shoot, so it was not very picturesque, but somehow I did my best with a camera from a long time ago and waited ? for the timing when the wind stopped. Even in such a situation, I wonder if you can easily shoot with today's high-performance mirrorless ... ?

Introducing the photos posted on "Minna no Post"! This is a pickup post on the inbound tourism information SNS "COOL JAPAN VIDEOS". Today, I would like to introduce "Nguyen Vu" post "Night view of Byodo-in Phoenix Hall". The contrast between light and shadow of the Byodo-in Phoenix Hall is impressive. Located in Uji City, Kyoto Prefecture, Byodoin Phoenix Hall is one of the World Heritage Sites of Ancient Kyoto. It is also famous for being depicted on a Japanese 10-yen coin. The history of Byodo-in Temple dates back to the first year of Tenki (1053). It was built by Sekihaku Fujiwara Yorimichi at the time, and the following year the Phoenix Hall was built as the Amida Hall, a Buddhist hall with Amitabha Buddha as its main deity. The name Phoenix Hall comes from the fact that when viewed from the front, it looks like a bird with outstretched wings, and a golden phoenix is attached to the roof. The biggest feature of Phoenix Hall is that it is built in a style that looks as if it is floating in a pond (Aji Pond). On clear days, the superb view of the phoenix hall reflected in the pond is also popular as a photo spot. We recommend shooting in the morning when it is in good light or in the background of the sunset. The grounds are full of attractions, such as the garden, which has been designated as a national historic site and place of scenic beauty, and the Brahma bell. ◆Byodo-in Phoenix Hall◆ 【Address】〒611-0021 116 Uji Renka, Uji City, Kyoto Prefecture 【Access】 JR Nara Line About 10 minutes walk from Uji Station Keihan Uji Line About 10 minutes on foot from Uji Station 【Opening Hours】8:30~17:30(Reception closes at 17:15) 【Inside the Phoenix Hall】9:30~16:30 (Capacity of 50 people each time) Please check the official website for details.

Introducing the photos posted on "Everyone's Post"! This is a pickup post of the inbound tourism information SNS "Cool Japan Video". Today, I would like to introduce Taka's post "Shirahige Shrine in Shiga Prefecture". The torii gate with the sunset in the background, the vast lake and the sky are fantastic. Shirahige Shrine, located in Lake Biwa in Takashima City, Shiga Prefecture, Kansai region, has been recognized as a Japan heritage site as a constituent cultural property of "Lake Biwa and its Waterside Landscape - Water Heritage of Prayer and Living". With a history of more than 2,000 years since its foundation, it is the oldest shrine in Omi. The goddess of the shrine was Sarutahiko no Mikoto, and it is said that the origin of the company's name was that Sarutahiko had white hair and a white demon. The benefits of Shirahige Shrine are wide-ranging, such as life extension and longevity, good luck, and matchmaking, and are believed to be the god of guidance and paving. The "Konaka Otorii Gate" floating on the lake is a hot topic for taking photogenic photos. On Saturdays, Sundays, and the year-end and New Year holidays, it is lit up and you can enjoy a superb view with a different atmosphere from the daytime. We also recommend the "Nishiomi Seven Lucky God Tour" where you can enjoy the treasure seals (red seals) of the seven gods of fortune scattered throughout Takashima City on special colored paper. There are two types of red seals of Shirahige Shrine, and you can receive the red seal of the regular and the Nishiomi Seven Lucky Gods Tour "Jurojin". ◆Shirahige Shrine◆ 【Address】〒520-1122 Shiga Prefecture Takashima City Unogawa 215 【Access】 【Car】 ・From Kyoto and Osaka From Kyoto Higashi IC, take Kosai Road / National Route 161 north 40 km ・From Tokyo and Nagoya Take Maibara JC to Hokuriku Expressway, and from Kinomoto IC, take National Routes 8, 303, and 161 south, 45 km 【Train】 From Kyoto Station, take the JR Kosei Line - Get off at Omi-Takashima Station for about 40 minutes (New Rapid) About 3 kilometers from Omitakashima Station, 40 minutes on foot, 5 minutes by taxi --------------------- ★ The 14th COOL JAPAN VIDEOS Photo Contest is currently being held with the theme of "Superb Photography of the Japan"!

Shiga Prefecture's "Shirahige Shrine"
As the sun went down, I felt very strange at the sunset and the torii gate floating on the lake. I was deeply moved that there is such a fantastic thing in Shiga Prefecture.
