Must-see spot ☆ Morioka Hachimangu Shrine

This is a large shrine in Morioka, Iwate Prefecture. It is famous for its Chagu Chagu Umako. I think it is within walking distance if you go sightseeing around Morioka Station. There is a large parking lot. There is also a tea shop. It was rebuilt in 2006 and was beautiful. I visited in the evening, so it was empty. There was a stand to put your smartphone so you can take photos with the temple grounds in the background, which was great 😂 (it doesn't fit with a selfie stick) I was able to take a nice commemorative photo 🎶 In addition to fortune-telling slips and votive plaques, there were also gourds. They also sold a lot of charms. The weather wasn't the best, but if it had been sunny, I think I would have been able to take more colorful photos!!
