"絵馬(Ema)" is a votive offering. It is dedicated to temples and shrines.
Typically it is a board of about 15 centimeter square with a picture of various other subjects on the front.
You write your prayer or words of appreciation on the back and hang it on a designated place in a shrine or temple grounds.
