Nogi Shrine

When I participated in a local town event, visiting this shrine is included in the schedule. So I first knew this shrine in the event. It is located in a tranquil residential area. Usually the entrance of the shrine is simple but the gate of this shrine is magnificent. In the precincts, such objects as stone horse, or sea bream were outstanding. Remains or materials related to Japan-​Russia War are displayed here. Also the monument stands. The spacious ground is often chosen as a promenade course or a lunch spot of local citizens.
I purchased a good luck talisman embroidered with the word «Win» or 勝, which was rare and very impressive. So I gave it to the nephew who studied hard to pass the university entrance examination. Of course later he succeeded in the examination.
