Izumo Taisha Details – Shimane

As a follow up on my post on the Grand Shrine of Izumo, Izumo Taisha in Shimane Prefecture earlier this month I wanted to share some details or close ups of buildings and places around the shrine grounds. If you’ve visited any Japanese shrine you’ll recognize most of these details, the main difference being perhaps that there is so much of everything at this fantastic shrine. I can’t wait to go back there someday, but this time with more time on my hands. Enjoy!
