With Pictures of Japanese People 100 Years Ago Tokyo Shrines

Water of Life Taki Shrine Fuchu City
Going down the stairs, I thought it was a strange terrain.
The source of the deity was a small spring.
The fresh water, which has never dried up at any time of the year.
It has been there for hundreds, thousands, or tens of thousands of years.
It is a sanctuary that is typical of Japanese people, who are grateful to nature and enshrine it as a god.
It is a sanctuary that is uniquely Japanese.

15 minutes on foot Bato Kannon Bosatsu
16 minutes on foot Hiyoshi Shrine

18 minutes on foot to Anyoji Temple
19 minutes on foot Kompira Shrine

When I visit shrines in Tokyo, I am often amazed at the sanctuaries that have been protected by the people.
Flood, fire, earthquake, war, and worship.
Small shrines, shrines perched on the rooftops of buildings, and shrines directly under expressways.
Sanctuaries that are close to people in any form, and the guardians who protect them.
I made this video to share these beautiful images with you!
The Japanese landscape and the Japanese people of the past remain in old photographs.
Some of the photos are around 100 years old, some are about 150 years old, and some are 85 years old.
Please feel the connection with the people of the past!
