I am planning to travel to Japan in January. I would very much like to pay my respects to O' sensei Morihei Ueshiba by visiting where his ashes were placed. I have been told that his ashes were distributed between the Ueshiba family temple in Tanabe, the Aiki Shrine in Iwama, the Ueshiba family cemetery in Ayabe, and at the Kumano Grand Shrine.

Unfortunatley, I cannot find their actual locations or proper directions to them. Also I do not know the proper protocol / behavior one must adhere to when visiting theses sites. Can you please help me, or tell me whom I can contact for that information?
