Obitoke-dera is a historic temple along the Yamanobe no Michi in Nara, known throughout Japan as a sacred site for safe pregnancy and childbirth (安産祈願). Founded over 1,200 years ago, it belongs to the Shingon Risshū sect and enshrines the Eleven-Faced Kannon, a compassionate deity revered for protecting expectant mothers. The temple's name, “Obitoke” (“to untie the sash”), reflects its role in easing childbirth. According to legend, the mother of Emperor Seiwa prayed here for a safe delivery, and since then, the temple has received visits from both imperial and everyday families. Women still come to receive blessed belly bands (腹帯) and amulets, particularly on Inu-no-hi (Dog Days), considered auspicious for pregnancy. On the grounds are a serene main hall, a Jizō Hall for children’s protection, and small paths that blend into the peaceful scenery of the Yamanobe trail. The temple continues to offer blessings for fertility, healthy pregnancies, and the well-being of children.

Memory Lane: Shimada Shrine, in Yashimacho, Nara Prefecture. Located along the ancient Yamanobe no Michi, Shimada Shrine (嶋田神社) has a fascinating history. From Signboard: Until the end of the Edo period, the main hall of Kasuga Taisha Shrine was rebuilt approximately every 20 years. After each rebuilding, the dismantled previous main halls were distributed to various locations. This hall is one such example, making it a valuable structure that retains the architectural style of the time. The construction and relocation history is as follows: In 1709 (Hoei 6), it was built as the third hall of the main shrine complex at Kasuga Taisha. Ink writings on the building materials indicate it was called the "Mi-no-goden" (Hall of the Three). Around 1777 (An'ei 12), it was relocated to the grounds of the Suzugamine Tennosha Shrine. In 1886 (Meiji 19), Suzugamine Tennosha and Shimada Shrine merged during the Yagi area's redevelopment. This building was then relocated to its current location and reestablished as the main hall of Shimada Shrine.

Ōmiwa Shrine (三輪明神, 大神神社) in Sakurai, Nara Prefecture, is one of Japan’s oldest Shinto shrines, with origins dating back to ancient times, long before Buddhism was introduced to Japan. The shrine is dedicated to Ōmononushi (大物主神), a deity associated with nation-building, agriculture, sake brewing, and healing. This shrine is unique because it has no honden (main sanctuary building). Instead, the sacred Mount Miwa (三輪山) behind the shrine is the object of worship, considered a kami (divine presence). This makes Ōmiwa Jinja a "mountain worship" shrine, one of Shinto practice's purest and most ancient forms. The massive Ōtorii (大鳥居) standing before the approach is one of the largest wooden torii gates in Japan, creating a dramatic entrance to the sacred space. Mount Miwa (三輪山): You can climb the sacred mountain (registration and purification required). No cameras or food are allowed, and silence is encouraged, emphasising the mountain's sacredness. Sake Culture: Ōmiwa Jinja is strongly associated with sake brewing. The deity is seen as a protector of brewers, and the area hosts festivals and rituals related to sake. Snake Symbolism: White snakes are believed to be messengers of the deity. Snake motifs or offerings of eggs are associated with these divine messengers.

Introducing the "Hachidai Ryuo Benzai Ten Okami Kojin Shrine- (八大竜王 辯財天 大神 龗神神社 遙拝所)" in Sakurai City, Nara Prefecture. " "Kojin Shrine" is read as Okami no Kamijinja or Ryujinjinja. Located on the lakeside called Iwatsuboike, Iwatsuboike is a power spot known for its mysterious atmosphere. Although it is a small shrine, it is a special place for those who believe in dragon gods and pray for water. It is also popular as a power spot; some people say they can't get there unless they are called. Okami (Okami no Kami) "龗" means "dragon," and the god is also known as a dragon god and a water god. Since ancient times, he has been believed to be a god in charge of rain and water. It is sometimes read as "Ryujin", but at Kojin Shrine in Sakurai City, Nara Prefecture, it is often called "Okami no Kami" or "Ryujinjinja". Okami no Kami "淤" means "water stagnant," and "Kami" means sacred power and god. Kamikami is also a god related to water and dragon gods, especially in the "Kojiki" and "Nihonshoki." It is associated with Takakami no Kami and Kuraokami no Kami (Kuraokami no Kami). In the "Kojiki," it is said that when Izanagi no Mikoto slashed the god of fire and Kagutsuchi, several gods were born from his blood and body. Takaokami no Kami and Kuraokami no Kami appear, which are considered to be the prototypes of Takaokami and Kogami. In the same way, in the "Nihonshoki," the gods of Izanagi no Mikoto, the gods of high and the gods of darkness appear as the gods of water and are described as dragon gods and gods of water.
