Happy New Year!
These are 'EMA(絵馬)' in Japan.
Ema is wooden plate that was written praying message.
Many Japanese people visit shrine on new year and write their peace praying message to God of Japanese on EMA.
Write your message on back side of the plate, and hang it at the place in garden of shrine.
It is so easy for anyone and so cheap(¥500-¥1,000).
I recommend to you try it when you visit Japanese shrines.
I hope your wishing will make it.

Diese Holztafeln können gekauft und mit Wünschen beschriftet werden. Man hofft, dass die Wünsche dann in Erfüllung gehen, wenn man sie im Schrein aufhängt.
Ema and strings of paper cranes for sale at the Fushimi Inari-taisha Shinto shrine, Kyoto, Japan. Ema are wooden plaques on which Shinto worshippers write their prayers or wishes, and the strings of 1000 origami paper cranes (senbazuru) are given for eternal good luck, long life and world peace.
"Ema (絵馬 picture-horse) are small wooden plaques on which Shinto worshippers write their prayers or wishes. The ema are then left hanging up at the shrine, where the kami (spirits or gods) are believed to receive them. They bear various pictures, often of animals or other Shinto imagery, and many have the word gan'i (願意), meaning "wish", written along the side. In ancient times people would donate horses to the shrines for good favor; over time this was transferred to a wooden plaque with a picture of a horse, and later still to the various wooden plaques sold today for the same purpose.
Ema are sold for various wishes. Common reasons for buying a plaque are for success in work or on exams, marital bliss, to have children, and health. Some shrines specialize in certain types of these plaques, and the larger shrines may offer more than one. Sales of ema help support the shrine financially." (Wikipedia)

EMA tram 465 en bijwagen 946 komen tijdens de Amsterdamse dag uit de remise, om ritje door de stad te maken.
Ema (lit. "picture-horse) wooden wishing plates hang outside the Showa Great Buddha statue at Seiryu temple in Aomori, Japan. The name comes from early Shinto tradition, where horses were believed to carry messages from the kami (spirits or Gods). Hence people would donate horses to shrines for good favour during famines and droughts. The practise, as horses were extremely expensive, was transferred to figures and wooden plaques with a picture of a horse, and eventually to the various wooden plaques sold today. These votive plates hang at a shrine until they are ritually burned at special events.
Shrine visitors buy wood blocks called ema and write their prayers and wishes then leave them at the shrine in the hope that their wishes come true.

In Japan, small wooden plaques called ema are used at Shinto shrines and Buddhist temples for writing prayers and wishes. These ema are typically purchased at the shrine and inscribed with a person's desires before being hung up in a designated area. The prayers are believed to be carried to the deities through the smoke when the ema are ritually burned during special events. These ema were at an ancient Shinto shrine in Kishiwada, Japan.
The Ema Slag Heap in Ostrava, Czech Republic.
On the right bank of the Ostravice River, this slag-heap (an artificial hill created by piling up waste material from coal mines) reaches a height of 315 metres above sea level. It enjoys its own unique subtropical climate because the waste material is still burning deep beneath the surface – white smoke still billows from the cracks in the ground. Snow never settles here, and flowers grow all year round. From the top of Ostrava’s very own volcano you can enjoy some wonderful panoramic views of the city. Families can be seen climbing the heap on weekends.
