Takaya Shrine and sand painting of "kanei-tsuhou(寛永通宝)"

     I visited Takaya shrine and sand painting of "kanei-tsuhou(寛永通宝)" when I went back to my hometown for winter vacation. Both of them are located in Kanonji City, Kagawa. This was my first visit and it was good, so I would like to introduce them.
     The first is about Takaya shrine. Takaya shrine is a shrine that its Hongu is located on the top of a mountain, Mt. Inazumi. We have to climb the mountain to pray in the shrine. The mountain is at an altitude of about 404 meters, so the view from that shrine is very beautiful! The main shrine's torii is known as the "Torii in the sky", and in 2018 it was selected as one of the eighty-eight views of Shikoku. By the way the torii also appears in the anime "YUKI YUNA IS A HERO(結城友奈は勇者である)", so there have been fans who visited the pilgrimage to scared place, which have long been on the stage of animation.
     Next is sand painting of "kanei-tsuhou(寛永通宝). It is called "Zenigatasunae". Zenigatasunae is a hugesand painting imitating Kanei-tsuho made in the Edo period. It has an oval shape of 122 meters longtudinal (east-west) and 90 meters horizontally (south-north). It can be seen as a true circle from the observation deck at the top of Kotozen Park. 
    If you are interested in, please stop by them when you visit Kagawa.

    My image from Shikoku and shrine is Shikoku Henro only, so I don't know in detail. Reading this blog, I'm interested in shrines in Shikoku.

My favorite singer②

イメージ
 One of my favorite singers is Aimyon. She is a singer-songwriter, so she not only sings her songs but also makes the lyrics. Her songs were used in many dramas and many of her songs are love song. In her songs, I especially like "hadakanokokoro" and "marigold". The song "hadakanokokoro" is a theme song of a drama "kaseihunonagisasan". The lyrics are positive and warm, so the heart warms up when I listen to those songs. I like the lyrics as well as melodies of her songs. I would like to enjoy listening to her music from now on.

A dairy on October 17

イメージ
 October 17, 2020 (Sat.) Rain in the morning cleared up by afternoon  It was chilly. I studied and made lunch with my friend whom I met in equestrian. We made a lot of dishes, pumpkin gratin, pumpkin salad, and minestrone. I like pumpkins and sweet potatoes very much, so these dishes made me happy! All dishes were delicious, especially pumpkin gratin was good. I was surprised that minestrone included garlic. I would like to cook these dishes again and make other meals and sweets with my friend.
