This year, it’s already half coming. It's a turning point for a year.
Since ancient times, at the end of June, Shinto ritual has been held at shrines in various places to remove the impurities of six months and to eliminate evil diseases as "Nago Shinohara E". It seems that it is also described in <Engishiki> of the Heian period.
It seems that <Chinowa Goguri> is often run at this event. There are many historic shrines in Chuo-ku, which can be seen in several areas.
On this day, I visited [Tsukiji Namiki Shrine]. On the afternoon of a holiday when the drops of the rainy season drop quietly, it was time to look back half a year quietly.
"May there be something good in the latter half of this year" ... I just pray for the development of a peaceful and bustling area.
