My Respect!!@ all =) In summer of 2021 or 2022 I am going to Japan and would like to visit Kyoto, Tsushima, Osaka and Tokyo. The Game Ghost of Tsushima showed me the incredible beauty of Japan. I'm really looking forward to it. I'll have a look at this shrine then :) I can only recommend it to anyone interested in Japanese culture and scenarios. love the sights in the game.

Gamers have proven to be extremely charitable in recent years. A great example is the Destiny charity event that started in (i think) 2015 that has now grown into a substantial organization.
