What is inside a Japanese shrine?
1 Answer

A Japanese shrine, or Shinto shrine, will include three main areas: the main hall (honden), a worship hall (haiden) and an offering hall (heiden). Most people do not enter the shrine itself. Instead, they pray at the entrance to the hall. Find a variety of Shinto shrine pieces on 1stDibs.
