Hi, Emma. What are you reading?

Oh, this? It’s a culture magazine.
I’m reading a guide on Buddhist temples and Shinto shrines in Japan.

How are they different?

Well, a Shinto shrine is a place of worship to the honored ‘kami,’ deities of Shinto.

How about the temples?

A Buddhist temple, on the other hand, is dedicated to a Buddhist deity.

I see. What do Japanese people do when they visit?

They usually put a coin in an offering box and pray quietly.
They also purchase omamori, a protective charm.

Are tourists welcomed there?

Of course. Everyone can visit regardless of personal beliefs.
