犬山 (10/19/2020)

You can get the red stamp of Shaka Nyorai. The font and skill depend on the person who writes it, so those who are concerned need to be careful. The exterior walls are beautifully carved, and you will forget the time as you take a closer look at the various sculptures just by going around the outer corridor.

It was the old main hall before the current main hall was built, and was built in 1858. The 500 Arhats (8 pieces) are considered to be the last works of the Edo Buddhist priest, Ryoyama Matsumoto. I don't know much about Ryoyama Matsumoto, but it seems that he mainly worked on Buddhist statues. Perhaps because of this, it is carved deeply using a fairly thick plate, and it looks like a delicate yet dynamic carving considering the depth. My personal main is the sculpture of Twenty-four Takashi, which is set in the door. It's correct, but at one point Toshimasa of the same family also called himself the 8th generation). The sculptures are breathtakingly beautiful, with detailed carvings from the gestures of the person to the facial expressions, the expression of the trees and leaves. In particular, the expression of thunderstorms on the royal palace (the door on the left side of the west side) clearly showed the reason why it was called a "genius". Unfortunately, I couldn't take a closer look at the open side of the door. By the way, the work of Toshiaki Shimamura is famous for the main shrine of Tanashi Shrine in Nishitokyo City, but you can't usually see it. Therefore, the main shrine of Hikawa Shrine in Kawagoe City is recommended for visiting the sculptures of Toshiaki Shimamura.

Shakado, a shrine that goes to avoid evil every year. I personally like this Shakado in Mt. Narita, and I heard that this is the main hall before the relocation, and it is the main hall that I visited when I was one year old when I was one year old. Even now, I remember vividly, every time I visit the mysterious relationship with Shakado. Certainly, a very large cloth such as purple or yellow was fluttering in the wind in front of the temple, and I remember the color as I was 0 years old.
