Cedar balls with a blush

[Asunaro] Nov. 22, 2017 09:00

During this season, hanging cedar balls were hung at the eaves of the sake brewery.

I see it being replaced with a new one.

It's a tradition that tells young sake's beginning of squeezing.

 Its origin is at a shrine in Nara, which celebrates the god of sake during the Edo period.

We gathered at "Sakaei-ko", a sake festival held every winter.

Mrs. Toji and others brought back the cedar of the shrine as a talisman.

It's easy to start hanging on the eaves.

Ginkgo Hachimangu Shrine sits between Kakigara and Ningyocho.

It is a Yahata-style shrine whose enshrined deity is the god of fortune.

When shrine hall was built, there was a large ginkgo tree of 300 to 400 years old.

Yes, the company name is derived from it.

It is the only Yahata Shrine in Chuo-ku.

A very quiet space. When I looked up, the treetops began to turn golden

I was there. It's a scene that reminds me of the past.

Visiting Ginza Hatcho Shrine

[Asunaro] Nov. 6, 2017 18:00


Every year in autumn.

You will never visit it for shopping purposes

Visit the shrines located on the roof of the building or in the back of the alley.

Press the stamp on the "Checkbook".

It is an interesting stamp rally with about 2,000 people participating.

It was closed to rebuild the building.

Kakugo Inari Shrine is also open this year.

In addition, it is usually closed to the public and will be specially opened during the event period.

The tour will visit 11 companies including Ginza Inari Shrine and Success Inari Shrine.

I'll have a bell of the dog, the Chinese zodiac next year.

I enjoyed the unusual silver bula.
