This photo captures the feeling of "fresh greenery and wisteria trellises" at Ōtenpaku Shrine.

This photograph captures the wisteria trellis standing deep within a lush canopy of fresh green leaves. Ōtenpaku Shrine in Hanyū City is a quiet shrine long cherished by local residents. Come spring, wisteria blossoms flourish throughout its grounds, with the flowers blooming near the torii gate being particularly striking. Their appearance—neither overly showy nor ostentatious, yet somehow restrained and serene—perfectly complements the shrine's tranquil atmosphere.
