Hitachinaka City, Ibaraki Prefecture, is the number one producer of dried sweet potatoes in Japan!
We'd like to introduce you to the "Hoshimo Shrine," which was created with the wish "May you get everything you want!"
As you may have noticed, the "Hoshimo" at the "Hoshimo Shrine" is a combination of "dried sweet potato" and "something you want" 👏
The votive plaques at this shrine are in the shape of dried sweet potatoes 🍠
"I want a job offer!" "I want credits!" "I want a girlfriend!", etc., there were lots of things people wanted written on them!
Apparently it's a new shrine that was built after the Reiwa era began, and the golden torii gate was indeed shining✨
