Labarum And Corn

Shot at Ueno park in Ueno, Tokyo.

The Ueno park was very crowded. Many attractions, for example some museums, were located in this park. Besides, it was the season of the cherry blossoms. This park is one of the major places for the cherry-blossom viewing.

I came to the entrance of Tosho-Gu, a Shinto shrine dedicated to the founder of the Tokugawa Shogunate. The approach way was filled with the visitor. And many food stalls were doing business on the both sides of it. The food stall was one of them. A labarum was erected in front of it. And the staff was baking corns. Some people could think that 'Bread is better than the songs of birds'. And I was included in such kind of people.
