Cyclamen

I bought these cyclamens at a shop of the open air in Inari Shrine.

The price was half as much as usual and was 500 Yen a pot.
If I take good care of them, they will keep blooming till May.

Both red and white are beautifull!!

　

Giant Shinto straw festoon

A giant straw festoon is put in front of the main building of Inari Shrine.
It weighs about 1.5 tons.

And under the Indian-style main gate is a pair of stone statue of fox.
