The good luck of Daruma Dolls
at Shorinzan
After living in Kyoto for a year, I came to enjoy visiting shrines and temples. Shorinzan is one of my two favorites in Gunma (Nukisaki is the other).
My friend and I decided to get into the daruma spirit before visiting Shorinzan, by painting daruma dolls at the nearby Daimonya daruma shop. It was a fun eperience as well as helped us gain an appreciation for for the artists who paint daruma for a living.
If you are genki enough to climb the many stairs, the buildings, grounds, and daruma exhibits are well worth the effort.
