Japanese temples are peaceful places that enshrine Shinto beliefs. Omikuji, slips of paper with fortunes people have left for the resident spirits, flutter in the breeze. On Shichi-Go-San, or Seven-Five-Three day, boys and girls don traditional outfits before visiting the shrines. Marriage ceremonies occur throughout the year, often with the couples in wedding kimonos. No matter which of Sapporo's shrines you visit, the experience will stay with you long after you've returned home.
