My first visit of Y2K to Kawasaki Daishi Temple

January-1-2000

I went to Kawasaki Daishi Temple in Kawasaki city near Tokyo.
We had a crowd of people inside the Temple.
DARUMA (kind of doll;tumbler) is famous as a souvenir.
DARUMA is modeled after Bodhidharma(a Buddhism Saint).

At souvenir shops,we can buy DARUMA and HAMAYA.
HAMAYA is a decorative arrow supposed to ward off evil.

I consulted an oracle. I got an excellent luck! Yeah!!!


I saw Shinto straw festoon on the gate of the Temple .
Shinto is Japanese traditional religion.
