Ancient Japanese ShrinesShrines were the oldest type of religious buildings in Japan, mainly worshipping and worshipping the gods of Shinto.
From the middle and late period of the Asuka era (538 - 643), Japan implemented a "replacement" system for shrine buildings, which meant that they would be rebuilt every certain period of time (such as 20 or 60 years), which made the shrine buildings last for a long time. Many shrines were built very early and were still intact. The shape of the shrine was similar to that of the folk houses at that time. There was a row of round logs on the ridge, and a pair of high and crossed square timber on both ends of the ridge. This was the trace of the binding structure of Japanese primitive architecture.
Some of the most important shrines in ancient Japan included Izumo Taisha. It was located in Izumo City, Shimane Prefecture, with a total area of about 27,000 square meters. It was the oldest shrine in Japan and enjoyed the title of "Taisha". Itsukashima Shrine was founded around 593 years ago on Itsukashima Island in Nisuki City, Hiroshima Prefecture, Japan. It mainly worshiped the three sea goddesses in ancient Japanese legends (the three goddesses of the shrine). It was built on the intertidal zone of the Seto inland sea coast. The large bird house in front of it was the most famous landmark in Itsukashima Island, which was known as one of the "Three Sceneries of Japan". In addition to most of the architectural structures being designated as national treasures, it also collected many national treasure-level items. In 1996, it was listed on the World Heritage List together with the primeval forest area on Mount Yaya behind the shrine (the shrine is a World Cultural Heritage, and Mount Yayama is a World Natural Heritage), and the Nezu Shrine, which was founded by the Japanese Muzun 1900 years ago, and so on.
In ancient times, Shinto shrines were the center of belief in Shinto and the spiritual totem of the Japanese. When ancient Japanese went to the shrine, they usually washed their hands with a wooden spoon in front of the pool in front of the shrine. Then, they went to the temple on both sides of the ridge and threw some change into the donation box with wooden lattices. After clapping a few times, they put their palms together and prayed. Some temples had hemp ropes hanging in front of them. The prayer shook the hemp rope to make the wind chimes sound. The main targets of the shrine included the main god Amaterasu (also known as the Sun Goddess), as well as all kinds of natural beings and gods. For example, the nearly 100,000 Inari Shrines in charge of wealth and crops in Japan were very representative. In ancient times, Japanese people would visit the shrine on special days such as New Year's Day, Japanese Children's Day, and other festivals. Newlyweds would hold weddings in the shrine, and newborns would be brought to the shrine to pray a few days after they were born.
