Huge sake casks stacked up at a shrine? Whatever for? ⛩🍶
Celebrations and festivals are a way for people to unwind. That’s why you’ll see the straw-wrapped barrels of sake outside of shrines like this one. This is Moto-Sumiyoshi Shrine found in Kobe, Hyogo Prefecture. The outside of the shrine itself is also a beautiful example of Japanese architecture.
Hope you’re in town to share in the libations during one of their festivals!
