At 12 metres tall and 11 metres wide, you’d be hard pressed to miss the open-mouthed lion head building at Namba Yasaka Shrine in Osaka. 🦁 It’s said that the lion’s gaping mouth swallows up evil spirits and brings about good luck. 📍The shrine is a 6-minute walk from Namba Station. 📷 Photo by @swedishnomad #VisitJapanAU #Tradition
