Kyushu
Japan
Throughout Japan, shrines and offerings to forest spirits are quite common. I would often see a stone pillar in the middle of a glade or along a wooded path. Here people have cloaked the gods and left offerings of coins and flowers. The colors are bright and baby-ish, as if these were children of the forest.
