Understood. We propose the following structure for the sightseeing article about Suyama Sengen Shrine.
Looking out over both sides of the approach, you'll see towering cedar trees over 400 years old, creating a solemn atmosphere. Step by step, let's renew our intentions for entering the sanctuary and ascend the stone steps.
The stone lanterns are eye-catching. Peering inside, you'll catch glimpses of the beautiful shrine through heart-shaped windows. This pattern, called 'Inome', carries the meaning of protection from fires and disasters.
Following the moss-covered approach, you'll reach the main hall. From the greenery of the trees, a refreshing forest scent wafts through the air. Let's be soothed by the deeply green landscape unique to the ancient temple, and quietly join our hands in prayer.
After the sutra recitation, how about seeking a seal stamp as a memento? At the seal stamp office within the precincts, you might even receive a treat called 'Milky'. It is said that these are meticulously manufactured with prayers after being made in the factory.
About a 10-minute walk from the nearest bus stop. There are also two small and large parking lots available, so access is very convenient. If you want to enjoy the quiet sanctuary, be sure to pay a visit here.
