[Nara Prefecture] Japan's first sacred place for warding off evil spirits, Okadera

📍Nara Prefecture The Saigoku Sanjusansho are 33 sacred sites of Kannon worship scattered across two prefectures and four prefectures in the Kinki region and Gifu Prefecture. The pilgrimage to these sacred sites is the oldest in Japan, and many worshippers still visit them today. Okadera is Japan's first sacred site for warding off bad luck. It seems to have the power of being the first sacred site for warding off bad luck in Japan, so I visited it when I was in my 30s and had a string of unlucky years (lol). It might be a good idea to ward off bad luck at the first place in Japan.
