This photo was taken with the focus on the ema in the foreground. The composition emphasizes the scenery stretching beyond the wishes written on the ema. Shorinzan Daruma Temple, with its vibrant array of daruma dolls, is a recommended spot for photography enthusiasts. The diverse expressions and designs of the daruma, varying in size, are each unique, offering new discoveries with every shot. Particularly striking is the overwhelming presence of the countless donated daruma dolls, stacked and lined up in overlapping rows.
