This is a part two entry of Naritasan Shinshoji temple that features red colors I've seen there.
Inside the Great Main Hall |
Goma (Sesame) fire ritual ceremony takes place twice a day and the ceremony has never ever been discontinued since the foundation of the temple. Over 1000 years!!! That's terrific! Fudo/Acala (不動明王) is worshipped there.
Niomon Gate |
The 800 kg weighed big lantern (提灯) is hung in the Niomon gate (仁王門). It says "Uogashi (魚がし).
Three storied Pagoda |
The 25 m tall three-storied pagoda (三重塔) was built in 1712.
Inari Shrine |
Naritasan is very complex. Inari shrine (稲荷神社) is located in the temple.
Yoshiさん こんにちは! お盆帰省中ですか?
ReplyDeleteYoshiさんの撮られる 神社仏閣を見ると、いつも心がゾワゾワします。
例えて言えば、ギターやベースのチューニングを下げた通常より低い音で
ド派手に始まる、ヘヴィメタルの曲のようです。
テクニカルな撮影、機材の進化を駆使された効果ですね!d(-_☆)
休暇明け、今年の後半戦も お互いにがんばりましょう!
どうぞよろしくお願いします。
Love angles and colors in your wonderful photography for OWT ~
