This shrine allows tripods, quiet the rarity. The Yoshiminedera Temple<\/a> in\nthe far south of Kyoto also allows tripods; I can't<\/span> recall any other\ntemples or shrines that allow them. Maybe it'd be okay in the common areas\nof the Nanzenji Temple<\/a>,\nnow that I think<\/span> about it.<\/p>\n\n

It was still quite early in the season, but photographers were plentiful...<\/p>\n\n
