Sotetsuyama and Sotokoshikake
We go further and further on down the sideway to see the preparation for winter of Sotetsu and Sotokoshikake along with Kawaya.
A little furtherdown I came to the place where sotetsu grow gregariously.
It is not so surprising for a person like me, who is engaged in gardening but for those who are not,
like people with whom I was walking it was really surprising.
I took a picture of Sotetsuyama from the front.
I heard it would take a week for 4 professionals to complete it.
Well if a person works on it for \20,000, then \80,000 for 4 people.
As 5 days for a week, the whole work costs \400,000. It seems like a real money pit.
You can see Sotetsuyama from the rest room named "Sotokoshikake", which is put in front of Sotetsuyama.
You cannot stop to take a rest or go back to the direction you came from but you can use it for a rest place, which is located next to kawaya.
They are a garden lantern and a basin. The basin was made in the image of double measure.
Each of them are mossy and look very old.
