I love all the photos Asuka. Thank you for sharing. They are beautiful people, with beautiful traditions. I love the idea of praying at the foot of a gorgeous tree and then passing through a hole in it. There is something very freeing in that. Like somehow passing through the hole, you are letting it go to the higher power. Lisa, California

Lisa-

Yes, the forest got this mystic aura and I can understand that it is their sacred place.
