This photo captures what I felt was "the fortune-telling booth and purple flowers" at Hakusan Shrine (Bunkyo Ward).

This photo was taken at Hakusan Shrine, featuring beautiful purple hydrangeas with the omikuji fortune-drawing area in the background. Hakusan Shrine (Bunkyo Ward) is a popular photography spot where seasonal flowers harmonize with the historic shrine grounds. Especially during the early summer hydrangea festival, visitors can enjoy the vibrant hydrangeas blooming throughout the grounds alongside the unique scenery only found at a shrine.
