Title
Ishiteji Temple Peace Cranes and Omikuji

Description
Ancient Japanese legend promises that anyone who folds a thousand origami cranes will be granted a wish by a crane, these colourful paper cranes were folded for peace and for the end of wars. On the right are omikuji paper strips bought from the temple for a general blessing, which can be about health, fortune, life, etc. When the prediction is bad, it is custom to fold up the strip of paper and attach it beside other bad fortunes to a tree or a wall of metal wires. If the fortune is good, you have the option of also tying it up to increase the fortune for a greater effect, or can keep it for luck. Matsuyama, Japan
