This shrine dedicated to fertility, has collected erotica from all parts of Japan. It is a giggling, slight embarrassment to the local people, but everyone visits it. The courtyard is filled with huge pxnises carved from trees and gigantic wooden vagxnas complete with well-placed moss. Even the statue of a hooded Buddha becomes a phallus viewed from the right direction. The museum takes up three floors of a modern building.
