[Tokyo] People On The Wooden Bridge | Stroll, Photo and Essay by Tetsu Ozawa

This shrine is dedicated to a deity of learning. And many entrance test takers come here to pray for getting into school. At the time of visiting, the season of taking an exam has passed already. Yet the precinct was crowded with the people who came here to report about the result.

Not all of the worshipers came here to report. A wedding ceremony was held in the prayer hall. A bridal couple, Shinto priests, female attendants and others who have finished the ceremony were just walking on the wooden bridge.
