I saw the banner saying Kotto Ichi (antique market) at Nogi Jinjya (Nogi Shrine).
It is a small market but indeed Antique Market.
The town is decorated for Christmas but the Shrine is already decorated for New Year.
I use this photo for my New Year greeting.
There is Hood Luck sign with next year’s zodiac, Wild Boar (in Japan, it’s not pig) and many Japanese Sake Barrels.
Please check my blog for 1 January 2019.
After checking antiques, I went to the Shrine for praying.
I also prayed at Seisho Jinjya (Seisho Shrine) which is located inside of Nogi Jinjya’s premises.
This Shrine is for wisdom which I need it very much!
I drew the fortune paper at the Nogi Jinjya on the way out.
It’s Kyo (Bad Luck)! Oh No!
I take it as a lesson.
There is another shrine just next to the main gate entrance, Akasaka Oji Inari Jinjya (Akasaka Oji Inari Shrine).
I prayed to get power.
It was a lovely day and Choco also enjoyed a walk.
