As I already wrote are many small temple and shrines here in Japan.
It is unbelivable they stand between normal houses, next to an parkingplace or next to a crowded street.
This is just one more evidence for the special culture of Japan. On the one side it is new and on the other side it is very traditional old. I have never seen such a combination before! And somehow it feels strange to me. But I'm just supposed to churches. These are always big and have a special place (there is only each region of town).
And so it is very impressive that you can see this special and great culture everywhere!
