    The tour at the Taisha Shrine in the snowy weather was a very special experience. It was the most peaceful and moving experience I have ever had in my life, and I was able to really feel the myth of the handing over of the country. I took this picture because I saw colored clouds when I looked up at the sky as it was beginning to clear in the midst of snow.  I was fascinated by the knowledge and embracing power of the storyteller, Mr. Wada, and the priest in charge of the shrine talked about the Izumo style of wooden construction and important cultural assets, and it was an experience that reaffirmed for me how lucky I am to be Japanese.  And in recent years, it has become a place I want to visit every year. It is the land of Izumo, and although the power spot boom is yet to die down, I want to be the person who feels like being honest and pure of heart once I step into Izumo-taisha Shrine. Shimane Prefecture is mysterious and I love it. I am really glad that I was able to participate in this tour, and I would like to thank everyone involved.

    We were worried about the forecast of a big cold wave, but we were able to see Izumo-taisha Shrine covered with snow on the day of the tour. Our guide, Mr. Wada, was very polite and spoke in an easy-to-understand manner. We were also given a story by a priest and a souvenir, which made our trip an unforgettable anniversary of our couple's trip and birthday. We are grateful that we were able to visit Izumo-taisha for the first time and will cherish our relationship with the shrine. Thank you very much.

    The style of speaking towards the audience was very good. It would have been easier to listen if he was a little louder. I would like to go back as it is in a neighboring prefecture. As I recall. The myth of the White Rabbit of Inaba, connected with Princess Yagami.

    It was my first time at Izumo Taisha and I was grateful to be able to participate in such an event. I was happy to be able to enter places that are normally inaccessible and visit the shrine. Being able to listen to Izumo-sama's explanation as we went around the shrine was also a rare experience for me. I would like to participate again if I have the chance. Thank you very much.

    From Staff

    I happened to see on the Internet news feed that the Izumo-taisha Shrine was to hold a special visit to the Hachimonnai Gate, and immediately asked my partner about it. He readily agreed, and we adjusted the schedule after a close call with his work shift! Since the condition of the tour was to stay in Izumo City, I quickly made a reservation on the Internet, even though I usually don't make reservations for accommodations until the last minute! It was a little far from Izumo Taisha Shrine, but I decided to stay at a business in front of the station. It was my first time staying in Izumo City and my first time in front of Izumo Station, but I was a little confused and stayed one night comfortably! Unfortunately, we stayed in Izumo City in the midst of the strongest and longest cold wave of the season, but we were able to proceed smoothly without stagnation. I wonder if this is also thanks to the blessing of a guiding karma? We stayed the day before the Sunday worship service, but despite the heavy snowfall, we were able to move around and proceed smoothly, and we were able to enjoy a different kind of worship service that we would not normally be able to enter. If I may express my greed, I would have liked to take a walk around the Hapsikimon and see the back side of the gate, which is not usually seen, but I felt a little backward. It was an unforgettable experience for me to see the unique winter scenery and Izumo-taisha Shrine, and I will always remember it as a page in my life. The staff's cheerful hospitality made the day a pleasant experience for me, no doubt. Thank you very much for the wonderful experience. Thank you very much.

    I had never visited Izumo-taisha Shrine and was attracted to Shimane. I applied for the tour when I learned that my birthday was on Izumo 126. The very detailed guide gave me a chance to read up on the mythology. The fact that we stayed in Izumo city is also good. I will visit again!

    Thank you very much for your hospitality during the strong winds and snowfall caused by the cold wave 😊. We are very happy to have received wonderful gifts from the association and from the priests, which we did not expect. If there is one thing I would have liked, it would have been to have some kind of guidebook for each of the points you guided us to that day, even if it was at the end of the tour when we were dismissed.

    We had a guided tour on the day after the Kamikaze Festival. I had always had a slight interest in mythology and the Kojiki, so the careful and easy-to-understand explanations made me want to know more and more about it. When I heard that God was now at "Mankusen-san," I changed my plans and visited "Mankusen-san. I was really happy to learn about all the things I did not know. I would like to visit Izumo again with this knowledge. I will definitely recommend this tour to my friends and acquaintances. Thank you very much for your help.
