Ofuna Sanpo


Took the dogs on an evening walk and came across some late-winter or early-spring fruit tree blossoms.

The park near home has a small creek running through it. The creek flows along the path in the park, which makes for a relaxing atmosphere.

A small, enshrined jizo statue is near one of the major bridges crossing Itachi River in our neighborhood. My guess is that this Buddhist deity is meant to keep visitors to the river safe and to protect the homes that line the river.

Came across this very small shrine located at the top of a hill.

Came across an even smaller shrine located next to the shrine.

I am always intrigued by huge stones with Japanese kanji characters.

These blossoms were at the bottom of the stairs as I left the small shrines and inscribed stone.
