The industrial mind corrupts the sacred truth...
Cities used to be FOR TEMPLES. That’s what they DID. That’s where urban dwellers MADE OFFERINGS. City economies were CULT ECONOMIES. Every hip urban neighborhood used to look like KANCHIPURAM. Factories were an AFTERTHOUGHT.

Toyotomi Hideyoshi's death poem:
露と落ち
露と消えにし
我が身かな
難波のことは
夢のまた夢
Came like dew
Disappears like dew.
My Life,
All of Naniwa (Osaka)
is dream after dream.
Karasumori Shrine has a very brutalist look to it as it was rebuilt in 1971
Really not sure if I like it or not, I suppose it looks less out of place in an urban environment but at the same time "concrete Shinto shrine" sounds like an oxymoron
