Nikko Toshogu Okunomiya Haiden

Nikko Toshogu Okunomiya Haiden, where I serve, is a sacred area enshrining Tokugawa Ieyasu. Its solemn atmosphere inspires awe in all who visit. People who praise Ieyasu's great achievements and wish for a peaceful world offer their prayers in this sacred place. It is also an important place for conveying people's wishes for good luck, warding off evil, family safety, and academic success to the deities. One can see people offering silent prayers in this historic place.
