Still at the shrine



 This is the stage or platform in front of the altar. During ceremonies, the people who attend will remove their shoes and stand or sit on the platform during the service.
 This stele (see the whole thing in the next picture) must be fairly new because the writing is still clear.
 This is at the bottom of the stairs. The two stelae and the torii are crowded together in a very small flat area.
 These are the stairs that allow access from the street. I did not take a photo but there is an access point from the housing area behind the shrine building.
This is the smaller of the two stelae with a shimenawa.
