Tokyo Shrines with Pictures of Japanese People from 100 Years Ago
Gotokuji Temple - Meet the Real Cat

I had been a little put off by the idea of a temple with beckoning cats, thinking that it might be a bit commercial and lacking in charm. I was a little put off by this temple because I thought it looked too commercial and unattractive.

When I went to the temple, I found that it was a very comfortable temple with small Buddha statues enshrined carefully and benches set up around the Buddha hall.

The temple has a charming atmosphere, and it is the kind of temple where people from the neighborhood come for a walk.

And somehow a real cat appeared and welcomed us.
Is it a cat owned by this person? But no collar.
I have a feeling that the cat at this temple has spiritual power.

When we visit shrines in Tokyo, we are 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!

Rabbit chasing, the mountain of a hare
Fishing for crucian carp, the river of Kano
Yume ha mondemo megurite
Obito gakemono hometown

"Even in the rain and wind..."
I remember my hometown.

"I will follow my heart."
Someday I will return home.
Mountains are blue, my hometown.
The water is clear.

My name is Mayu Noda.
I will introduce the charm of shrines around Tokyo, which I love.
Sometimes temples too.
