Tranquil today and cool, when the castle was hot and busy. Feels like a place that is well loved and used by community. A real place.

This is a shrine. It is located southeast of Himeji Castle. The red torii gate is very beautiful. Many people come here every year for New Years. Also, there are aristolochia which we planted when we were elementary school. It Is the food for black butterflies. So you can see some musk swallowtails during summer time.. It is very beautiful.

Beautiful shrine park with some smaller ponds as well. Don't come here after dark, or you'll be sucked dry by an armada of mosquitos.
