[Saitama x Kawagoe] Famous for its beautiful shrines, June is a windmill season

📍Kawagoe Hikawa Shrine 2-11-3 Miyashitacho, Kawagoe City, Saitama Prefecture 《Access》 About a 24-minute walk from the east exit of Honkawagoe Station Opening hours 8:00-18:00 ✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲ Kawagoe Hikawa Shrine, known as the god of matchmaking Various events are held every season. In June, many pinwheels are decorated on the wind chime shelf at the front torii gate. When the wind blows through the shrine grounds, the pinwheels start to spin around, making a cool sound. In the past, Japanese people believed that the wind carried their feelings. It is said that the wish is that the feelings carried by the wind will be blessed with the power of the gods and reach a loved one. There is an "Aitai Fortune Telling Machine" in the shrine grounds, which you can choose by hanging it up on a mini pole. After the "Kazaguruma" decoration period in June ends, it will be the season for wind chimes, and many people will visit. #Kawagoe #Kawagoe Hikawa Shrine #Matchmaking #God of Matchmaking #Windmill #Wind Chimes #0 Yen Travel #Saitama
