Kamakura Shrine

Reginald Williams 3 months ago

This is a lovely small shrine but just one of many, with nothing to distinguish it, in particular, from so many others. There is an “altar”where you can make a donation and receive a tiny symbolic “sakazuki”or cup for drinking sake into which you can then blow your troubles, subsequently smashing the cup on a rock nearby, whence the god of dissolving troubles will relieve you of your burden. Make sure the cup is broken, though. If not, repeat until the cup actually breaks. Worth stopping in if you’re nearby but, unless you have a concern specific to the offerings of this shrine, hardly a destination worth seeking out.

Sort of a dud and not very clean. Do not use the restroom near this place, it will give you nightmares. Cafes around the temple are really good though.

Nice temple with few interesting spots. You have turtle statue. If you pet him it is believed that your health could improve if am not wrong. It has red weird things as you could see on the photos and also the Torii was which is obviously rare for the temple.

It is a very spacious precinct. Antiques were lined up today.Is it a flea market?

Excellent place with heavy history presence. Unfortunately it was raining heavily during the visit. Hence did not explore in depth.
