Summary

Description

This photograph shows a Shinto shrine (Jinja). The upright stone in the foreground is a hyakudo-ishi (one-hundred-times stone). A worshipper with a special prayer will visit the shrine a hundred times, praying on each visit. After praying, the worshipper must go away from the shrine at least around this hyakudo-ishi for the next visit to count as a separate visit.

The shrine is within the grounds of Wakayama Castle. I took the photo and contribute my rights in the file to the public domain; individuals and organizations retain rights to images in it.
