Sengen Shrine and its mountain in Shizuoka:Oct 30, 2022 (Off Tokyo)




I had a short trip to Shizuoka City and visited Sengen Shrine.

It was a season of Shichi-GO-San, a traditional ceremony to cerebrate the kids at the age of seven, five and three.


Several kids in traditional Kimono costume were there. Their parents also dressed up.


Some gifts were sold for the kids.


I climbed a small mountain at the back of the shrine.

The mountain is 140 meter high. It took about 30 minutes to reach the top.

The scene of Shizuoka City was below me.

I could not see Mt. Fuji unfortunately, as there were some clouds, Still, I could see the Suruga Bay and the Izu Penninsula behind the see. (See also the top photo)
