Suwa Shrine in Sapporo, 2024!


by Kazu

Suwa Shrine in Sapporo changed its decoration around the hand-washing area near the entrance of the premises. Pale blue umbrellas and flowers made us feel  comfortable even in hot summer.
The figure of dragon pouring water into the pool for hand-washing. A variety of flowers were floating on the water and refreshed  our souls. Japanese Buddhism "Obon" when the souls of the deceased come back to the existing world,  such decoration and lanterns are displayed around the Buddhist altar in each household in summer. I love that.
