岩部(いわぶ)八幡神社の夫婦大銀杏。夫婦ですが、どちらも雌株(めかぶ)でギンナンの実がなります。時代を先駆けてLGBTQフレンドリーなシンボルツリーと言えるかもしれません。香川県指定の天然記念物、樹齢約600年。 A couple of large ginkgo trees at Iwabu Hachiman Shrine. Although they are a married couple, both are female plants (mekabu) and bear ginkgo nuts. It could be considered a symbolic LGBTQ-friendly tree ahead of its time. Designated as a natural monument by Kagawa Prefecture, the tree is approximately 600 years old. #shionoe #kagawa #takamatsu #uptak #tree #yellow #gingko #bigtree #japan #autumn #塩江 #高松 #香川 #香川県 #イチョウ #銀杏 #天然記念物 #古木 #大銀杏 #日本 #香川旅行 #香川観光 (岩部八幡神社) https://www.instagram.com/p/ClznjmPvSqB/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
Incredible trip to Takamatsu to see the Shishimai Okoku festival! So many groups performed the Shishimai dance and in very different styles.
I had never seen the Rikyuu (Okinawan) style Shishimai before, so I’m not sure if the group I saw at Takamatsu performs in a typical Okinawan or their own unique style, but their performance was fantastic. I loved seeing them walk around and join (invade?) others later on too.
