Nagoya Seimei Shrine

The Seimei Shrine in Nagoya is worth visiting from a spiritual perspective. The Nagoya Seimei Shrine has 7 mysterious stories. One of them is "Water" at the shrine. If visitors bring empty bottle, they can bring the God Water. The guide will read "Shinto prayers and the Heart Sutra". Therefore, the visitors can concentrate on praying. According to a medium, there are a few noble animal spirits (kind of God's pet animal) in the shrine site. This means visitors can take photographs capture the spirit if they are lucky. Additional information about the guardian lion statues (Komainu): It is said that men should stroke the left guardian lion statue, and women should stroke the right guardian lion statue (Komainu), at the same point on their body that concerns them.

Osu-Kannon Temple is now counted one of the Japan's three greatest Kannon temples. Main Hall: The "Daihi-den" (Great Compassion Hall) enshrines the principal image, the Holy Kannon. The guide prepares a candle and Osenkou (incense sticks) and reads sutras. Therefore, tourists can concentrate on praying. Fumon-den (Fumon Hall): This hall enshrines the guardian deities of the twelve zodiac signs. (It can be said to Zodiac Guardian Deity hall.) At the Fumon-den, a Kannon statue related to that person will be selected based on the birth year of each tour participant, and the guide will recite each mantra for each participant. Note: The tourists should inform their birth year in advance for selecting their each Kannon statue. Additional information about taking pictures: Except only inside the Main Hall, we can take pictures freely. Especially in a Fumon-den, there are a lot of Kannon-Statues.
