This time, we will introduce the post of "Kazmisa KazMisa"! One of the three Inari shrines in Japan, Takekoma Shrine, is a historic shrine built in 842. During the summer festival, many "wind chime" and "windmills" are installed in the precincts, and they are lit up at night. ◆Takekoma Shrine◆ 【Hokkaido Jingu】〒989-2443 Miyagi Prefecture, Iwanuma City Inaricho 1-1 【Access】 About 20 minutes from Sendai Station to Iwanuma Station on the JR Tohoku Main Line, about 15 minutes on foot from Iwanuma Station on the JR Tohoku Main Line and Joban Line 【Summer Visitation Period】July 1, 2023 ~ August 31, 2023

Takekoma Shrine, located in the center of Iwanuma City, Miyagi Prefecture, is a venerable Inari shrine that is counted as one of the three major Inari shrines in Japan. Every year from July ~ the end of August, "Summer Visits" are held here, and during the period, glass wind chimes and original wind chimes of white foxes are displayed on the approach to the shrine grounds, and summer attire that feels cool is applied. The wind chimes swaying in the wind play a summery tone, so you will feel cool.

Speaking of Kyoto, the Yasaka Tower near Kiyomizu-dera Temple. Aiming at dusk, shoot with a lightly extended shutter time The result is an atmospheric photo.

I'm going to post a photo of Kyoto Nanzenji Temple Suirokaku Aqueduct today. The collaboration of green and red brought out a good shade. Also, the way the sunset penetrated was indescribably great!

Hiroshima Atomic Bomb Dome Recommended places to visit in Hiroshima #Sorakoshi Shrine "Natsukoshi Festival" 👈 @sorasayajinja_official This year, the summer festival of the rainy hollow sheath shrine was held. The fireworks festival was also done, so I put in the Atomic Bomb Dome and took a picture. Last year, I couldn't post because I was too challenger, so this year it is a 😆 standard composition.

The fun of waiting for the wind. I wait for the wind chimes to ring all at once. Inabe City, Mie Prefecture Kanai Shrine

A couple found in Itoshima, Fukuoka Prefecture. Taken as a silhouette in a sunset shoot. It was a nice touch.

Sueyoshigu It is the Torii (shrine gate) of Sueyoshi Shrine, one of the eight Ryukyu shrines. There are two entrances, but I entered from the approach to the temple above this forest. What surprised me was that the moment I stood in front of the Torii (shrine gate), the air changed so much that I couldn't help but speak! I'm surprised. There is a sacred air in the air.

Sueyoshi Shrine I went to "Sueyoshi Shrine" in Shuri Sueyoshi, Naha City. It is one of the same eight Ryukyu companies as the Naminoue Shrine I introduced last time. I think it is the most impactful shrine among the eight shrines. Unfortunately, everything collapsed in the Battle of Okinawa, but it was restored. The worship hall is located in a small forest and overlooks the center of Naha City. The red tiles, white plaster, and vermilion paint are vivid, and there are few people who come to worship, and it feels like a secluded area.

Shinooka Hachiman Grand Shrine in Iwatsuki Ward, Saitama City, has a very beautiful red spider liliies in September.

This is the photo of this year's hydrangea ... I couldn't go to take a picture, only Shokaiji Temple hydrangeas. Every year, I go to shoot without fail. It is beautiful when it is in full bloom. I especially like blue hydrangeas ^^ Shokaiji Temple is a temple of the Shingon sect Chizan school located in Inazawa, Aichi Prefecture, Japan. It is a historic temple that is said to have been founded by Kukai, and the main statue is the Zenkoji style Amida Sanson statue. In the precincts, there are valuable buildings such as the main hall, which is designated as an important cultural property, the Taho Pagoda, and the Treasure Pagoda. In the adjacent Otsuka Shokaiji Temple Historical Park, 10,000 hydrangeas of about 90 species bloom in early summer. Colorful hydrangeas and irises in dry landscape gardens and ponds create a beautiful contrast. The Otsuka Kofun is also decorated with hydrangeas, and you can enjoy the atmosphere of ancient and modern. Shokaiji Temple is a temple full of cultural and natural attractions.

Naminoue Shrine It Naminoue Shrine one of the eight Ryukyu shrines in Wakasa, Naha City. In Okinawa, it is protected by Shisa, not Komainu. There is a male with an open mouth on the right and a female with a closed mouth on the left. The first visit was visited by the largest worshipper in Okinawa, and I also visited when I approached it. The Naminoue Shrine is on a cliff, and below it is a beach on the waves, and you can go to the beach directly from the side of the shrine. This also seems to be Okinawa ^^

Naminoue Shrine Naminoue Shrine is located in Wakasa, Naha City. There are not many shrines in Okinawa. Among them, there are eight shrines that have received special treatment from the Ryukyu royal government. It is called "Ryukyu Eight Shrines", and one of them is Naminoue Shrine, the most prestigious shrine in Okinawa. The worship hall is full of Okinawan feeling with red tiles, white plaster, vermilion paint, and palm trees. There are many people who come to worship, so I went early in the morning on this day and took a picture. Of course, I also finished the greeting of the shooting properly...

It is a Tokei Inari Shrine located in Osaki City, Miyagi Prefecture. In early summer, the contrast between the colorful fresh greenery and the torii gate is very beautiful.

This is a view that can be seen from Wakakusa Inari Shrine in Tome City, Miyagi Prefecture. It's a nondescript rural landscape, but the blue sky, green countryside, and clean air make this my favorite place.

A 15-minute walk from the school is a shrine related to Tokugawa Ieyasu's vassal "Okubo Nagayasu". Okubo Nagayasu is famous for creating the city of Hachioji, and it is said that it was also featured in Buratamori. Events related to Okubo Nagaan are frequently held here. It will also be held on June 17th, so if you are nearby, please go there. Since there are many historical buildings in Hachioji, we sometimes study history in class before visiting. Our school teaches not only about Japanese, but also about the region, about the history of the Japan.

Mizutani Shrine in Kasuga Taisha Shrine, a pleasant place where the sun shines through the trees is beautiful.

One of Japans best place to see the hydrangea or Ajisai flower is the Hase dera temple in Kamakura. There are 2500 ajisai plants of 40 different varieties. This temple is also known as flower temple. There is a very scenic hydrangea path in the temple area.
