Where is the shrine?
It is a place called "Tail Mountain Shrine" in Kanazawa in Ishikawa Prefecture. Tower-shaped building that extends beyond the stone steps leading to the Torii.It was built in the Meiji era, and it is now a very valuable building that has become an important cultural asset of the country. It might be a strange feeling that the West has mixed in Japanese style.It seems to be in the old building in China. The "stained glass" visible from the top-floor window of the tower is giving an impact.
At night the lights are lit up
The stained glass can be seen even if it goes during the daytime, but it is recommended to visit in the evening-night when it is lit up preferably. It reflects the light from the inside of the building, and it is a mysterious sight shining fantastically. It is now one of the most popular places in Kanazawa.
It is recommended because the brightness of the most stained glass stands out before it becomes dark completely outside ♪
What's the benefit?
It is said that there is a god of "the game Luck", and a lot of worshippers visit as a "win" power spot in the examination and business negotiations. Compared to other shrines, it is often seen people who are in suits, and may be visiting as a prayer for important business opportunities and job hunting.
