Meiji Shrine: Sept. 17, 2023







Meiji Shrine is one of my frequent-visit places.

Some information on the shrine is described in other posts. (e.g. an article ofSept. 13, 2022)

 


The shrine was crowded with many visitors, especially foreign tourists.

We got in the shrine through an entrance gate.  (See also the top photo)



Then, we walked some 10 minutes before arriving at the main shrine buildings.

 


There are another gate standing just in front of the main buildings. 

 


Many visitors were writing their wishes on a small tablet called ema, and hang them on a special boards.

 


The visitors’ wishes were written not only in Japanese, but also in many foreign languages. (see also the 2nd photo)
