Honden

Okay kiddo, let me explain honden to you.
Honden is not a particular thing, it’s actually a Japanese word that means “main hall” or “main shrine building”.
Imagine a big building where people go to pray or give offerings to their gods or religious figures. That’s kind of what a honden is.
In Japan, some honden are very old and have been around for a very long time. They’re considered very important and special places for people to go and worship.
So, honden is not really something you can hold or touch like a toy, but it’s a special place where people go to pray and be quiet.
