When you visit Tokyo's shrines, you're often surprised by the sacred places that have been protected by the people.
Floods, fires, earthquakes, war damage, and materialism.
A small shrine, a shrine on the roof of a building, a shrine directly under the highway.
Sacred places that are there for people in whatever form, and the guardians that protect them.
I made this video because I wanted to share these beautiful images.
Japanese landscapes and Japanese people of the past preserved in old photographs.
There is a Japan that seems likely to be forgotten. I really don't want to forget the forgotten Japan.
The photographs are around 100 years old, some are around 150 years old, and some are 85 years old.
Please feel a connection with people from the past.

00:00昔の日本 財宝や大切なものを納める坪が その地の名産だった
00:19東京 中央区 日本橋かやば町
00:26純子稲荷神社
00:33純子の名前は人の名前ではないようで。
00:38始まりは町武行所内の千代田稲荷の分隣を勧奨し、
00:44亀島町・岡崎町の二丁組屋敷に居住するよりきどう神の神主たり。
00:50名前の由来は当時が財宝保全の瓶亀作りの明治でもあったことから亀島の町民の恋を入れられ、
00:59純真な精神をししそんそんに伝え残すにふさわしくとの意を持って純子稲荷神社と名付けられたという。
01:08不思議なのはよりきどう神の神主として勘定していても、
01:15名付けに町民の意向が反映されている。
01:21侍と町民の距離が近かったと思われる。
