Atsuta Jingu Shrine – spherical panorama

Atsuta Jingu is one of the top places to see in Nagoya, Japan.  It’s located in a huge park with many old trees and buildings.  It’s said to house the famous sacred sword Kusanagi-no-tsurugi, one of the three sacred treasures that symbolize the Imperial throne.  They also have nice museum with many old items including swords.

Today many Japanese go there for weddings, festivals and yearly events.

This is my second panorama of a major place in Japan. Full screen is the best way to view it.
