I don't know why this poor shrine is in such a state - it's in a park which clearly sees a lot of traffic... maybe the locals worship a different kind of god nowadays?
The contrast of this shrine and the building behind it seems to indicate that this one is being neglected on purpose. Or maybe the caretakers are now gone and nobody new was assigned to it?
@jyokota It's really odd to be honest. It's a smallish park in a residential area that is itself in an industrial area, but the play equipment is well-maintained. Maybe it's another 'stuck in bureaucracy' kind of a deal, like those billboards from last summer. @linnypinny I feel like it still kind of is, although in a more melancholic way... @blueberry1222 thanks - it certainly has me wondering what happened to it! @kali66 yes - it's interesting how the dilapidation of different objects affects us differently! I don't think a weather beaten bus stop would feel the same way...
