Suwa Taisha Shrine πΈπΊ
Suwa Taisha Shrine πΈπ Suwa Taisha Shrine is divided into four areas: the Upper Shrine's Maemiya and Honmiya, πΊπΏ and the Lower Shrine's Harumiya and Akimiya. (My visiting order: Maemiya β Honmiya β Akimiya β Harumiya) π―β¨ πΊπΏ In fact, the distance between the Upper and Lower Shrines is quite far. Especially the Upper Shrine, which is located in a somewhat remote area, πΊπΏ requires taking a bus or a long walk after taking the train to reach it. I recommend checking the bus schedule in advance! ππΌ If you're planning to visit, you can find more information about the shrine's history and transportation options in the search results. πΊπΏ For example, the shrine is known for its rich history, dating back to the 6th century, and is considered one of the oldest shrines in Japan. πΊπΏ It has a unique connection to the local culture and traditions, including the famous Onbashira Festival held every seven years, which is one of Japan's three great festivals. πΊπΏ Enjoy your visit to Suwa Taisha Shrine! πΏπ #Nara
