The three wise monkeys carving on the stable house....
The smoke from the incense burner outside the temple is supposed to have healing propeties!

Nikko
I went on a tour to Nikko - 3hrs by coach north of Tokyo. The Toshogu shrine had colourful fabulously decorated buildings, a 5 storey Pagoda, and shrines and temples. The wooden carvings were done in detail... there were carvings of dragons, monkeys, pheonix, and other animals... it looked so pretty!
