Odds & Sods, Bits & Pieces


The bulk of my posts from more than a couple of years ago no longer have photos as the site where I stored them has gone. Some of the older posts still get visited, so I am trying to replace the photos. Obviously this takes time, but if any of you particularly want me to do this for certain posts please let me know in the comments below.


Three posts that I have updated the photos to are:- one on Hidden Crosses, used by the hidden Christians during the Edo Period. The second is on Genbu Shrine in Kyoto. The third is from Hasso Daishi, a small temple along the route of the Shikoku Pilgrimage.


I'm still publishing lots of guides and such over at Japanvisitor.com, and a few you might be interested in are.......

The Tezen Museum ..... lots of mingei and crafts from the Izumo area...

Historic Preservation Districts ..... guide to many of the Preservation Districts for Groups of Historic Buildings....

Yuasa is one of thse districts that is also the reputed origin of Soy Sauce

Shitenno are the "Four Heavenly Kings".... martial deities that protect Buddhism
