   ・Ao Shrine In this tour, a special experience is prepared at Ao Shrine. You will make your own Omamori inside the worship hall, a place that is normally not open to visitors. You can receive direct guidance from the Shinto priest, and the Omamori you make will also be purified on the spot. This is a very rare and valuable opportunity. The ceiling of the worship hall is decorated with colorful flower paintings that leave a strong impression on visitors. Although the exact founding date of the shrine is unknown, the grounds contain a sacred tree that is 1100 years old, allowing you to fully feel the ancient history and sacred atmosphere.
