shoogatsu: shrine visit

After breakfast in the morning we visit a local Shinto shrine (jinja - 神社) for a prayer ceremony.

The minister will strike a drum and chant a prayer for one family at a time.

The old shrine in Innoshima lies at a cliff with a great view of the sea. The video tries to give an impression of both the architecture and the landscape.
