From on the bridge, there is gate of shrine(right) KH

There is bridges painted in red, and pond.

This season, they opened some stalls in this shrine. You can eat them. Must be tasty!


In shrine, there is two bridge.
It's Japanese style one.

Their shade reflect on the water.

This is first bridge. Above picture, I took a picture from the top of bidge.

It's funny why people made these shape of bridge. This kind of bridge is normal type in Japanese old period.

But red color match round shape, isn't it!?




This picture was taken from top of the bridge.

 Wind carries the smell of wisteria!

Looking down wisteria from those tree!

Not all of them are blooming, but there are so many kind of wisteria, so you can enjoy difference of color.


Since they are holding Wisteria festiｖal,
there are some birds in there.

A　ｆalconer came there with his birds!

The left one is smallest.

Middle one is owl, right one too, but right one is a baby.

So his feather of head is ｆostale!

Very cuuutoooo!!




Don't forget about wisteria!

Amazingly beautiful!! like heaven!!

I like this flower since I was kid, but my mother cut them. I was sad. Above picture was taken at middle owl's place.

On the pond, there is bridge.

In this shrine, there are some path.

Buy snack, and walk around there with being surrounded by flowers.

In the pond, I saw a heron. This are is near ocean and river.

SO he came from there. This one is wild.

Japanese name of it is Ao Sagi,

Sagi means heron, Ao means blue.

It's like painting,

Before going to main place of this shrine,

the second bridge is in front of it.


Forefront　of bridge,  you can see a lantern made by stone.

This shape of lantern is called Kotoji Tourou,

Tourou is lantern,

Kotoji is the tool which is used when people play Koto, old instrument.

 Here comes a main　place!　This shrine worship Michizane Sugawara who died in 903.

He was famous for the god of study. Wash your hands before pray!

The left statue is a turtle, but god turtle!

From his mouｔh, water come out into the well!

The right one is that I saw in the pond.

If you afford money, around the shrine, there are some Japanese style restaurant.

I guess it's expensive.

On the way to go here, many cheap restaurant are there.
