The Meiji Shrine covers a huge ground, although much of it remains a forested area.
At the entrance of every shrine, there would be an area where devotees scoop a cup full of water for cleansing I suppose, before they enter into sacred ground.

I followed the forested path to the back of the shrine, and it opened up into this huge expanse of very parched ground.
There is something very haunting to this image of scarecrow-like trees, dried up stream and cawing crows in the background.
I never leave my room without my guidebooks and maps!
Give me a grass to roll on, a perfect spring sunlight mixed together with the last cold breeze from the departing winter, and you have found me my perfect place (:
