Fly to Japan in one second! Taoyuan Shrine, a photogenic spot full of Japanese style

The entire park is filled with a strong Japanese atmosphere, as if you have traveled to Japan in a second. Whether it is the buildings, trails, or small markets, they are all super easy to take pictures, and any one of them is like a postcard.

The shrine itself is a third-level historical site in Taoyuan City, and retains the architectural style of the Japanese colonial period. In the park, you can not only worship and take photos, but also experience kimono rental. It is more interesting to take photos in Japanese costumes. You can also write down your wishes and hang them up on Wind Chime Street. The sound of wind chimes swaying in the wind will make the whole atmosphere more romantic.

If you visit during holidays, there will be a small market in the park, selling some special products, snacks, drinks, as well as capsule machines and resident performances. It is quite interesting overall. It's not just about taking photos, it's also about experiencing the experience, making it worth staying for an hour or two.

Before entering the shrine, you can wash your hands and body in the hand-washing pavilion. When you worship, you will see the main deity enshrined, "Amaterasu Omikami", who is the sun goddess in Japanese mythology (some say she is a male god). There are explanatory videos in the park to help visitors better understand its cultural background. There is also a white horse, a symbol of a mythical animal, which was presented by the people in gratitude for the blessings of Rizhao.

The facilities in the shrine are quite complete, including a prayer hall, wind chime street, merchandise store and drink bar, etc. It is suitable for couples, families or friends to walk around and experience a different cultural atmosphere.
