The ‘fishing’ shrine from yesterday also had an extraordinary ‘tunnel’ of ema, which are wooden charms you (buy and) write wishes or prayers on. Traditionally these are hung for the god to take notice, and eventually burned in rituals.
These are common at all shrines, but the quantity I saw yesterday was incredible. The above pic was taken maybe halfway along the tunnel, so there’s at least as many behind me.
For comparison the Yatagarasu shrine had only a couple of hundred hanging:
I didn’t do one by the way. Maybe I should?
