Yasukuni Shrine is a historic building.These photos were taken in early April.
本殿の後ろに土俵があって、奉納相撲が行われていました。力士たちが帰る道にはゴザを敷きます。単なる勝ち負けのゲームではない扱いです。五穀豊穣への願いを含んだ儀式と感じられました。

こんにちは、マサさん. What a beautiful story.. I hope that you are feeling less stressed these days and that all PC problems are now gone.
I have been learning some things about Japan and the culture and it came to me while looking at your beautiful pictures that you have a word in Japanese which means 'flower watching'. I think such word only exists in Japanese... It is such a beautiful time and only in Japan one can see so many sakuras in bloom.
I also have a question to you. What do you think about work as a value in life? I learned it is much more important for the Japanese than for the Europeans. Very interested in what you have to say about this.
P.S.I have replied to your comment on my blog - and you got be really surprised by 4001 things :)
I read your blog name as 'Yoshinani in Japan', could you please help me translate what it means? :)
