This blog is my photo gallery that shows the photos I shot while travelling
around Japan, and I often visit temples and shrines for not only taking
photos but receiving a calligraphy cards of each temple or shrine called
"Goshuin(御朱印)". Recently almost all temples and shrines are providing
us their Goshuin with beautiful writings, stamps or even religious
pictures!
Goshuin has a religious meaning, but at the same time, I believe it should
be a good souvenir or gift when you travel around Japanese temples and
shrines. Therefore this page will briefly introduce you the origin and
meaning of Goshuin and how you can get them with some simple conversation
samples and my photos of Goshuin and temples/shrines.
