    Travel / Tourism
    Tokyo Shibuya-ku
    This Shinto shrine is dedicated to Emperor Meiji and Empress Shoken, and its grounds consist of an inner and outer garden as well as the Meiji Kinenkan, which can be used as a venue for weddings and other ceremonies. A lush forest occupies the inner garden area; beloved as a rare green space in the heart of Tokyo, highlights include the magnificent Honden front shrine; wooden torii gate which is the largest in Japan; the Gyoen garden, which requires a small fee to enter but which is beautiful year-round; and the Kiyomasa Well (located in the Gyoen garden), from which samurai lord Kato Kiyomasa personally drew water. The outer garden is a Japanese-style garden which preserves how the area looked when it was still largely wilderness; highlights include a broadleaf tree-enshrouded walking path; South Pond on which bloom lotuses; and some 1,500 Japanese iris plants spanning 150 varieties which Emperor Meiji had planted for Empress Shoken - the best time to see the irises is from late May through mid-June. The outer garden spans Shinjuku Ward and Minato Ward and its facilities include the free Meiji Memorial Picture Gallery, as well as tennis courts, a baseball stadium, and a variety of other sports facilities. In Fall 2019 as part of events commemorating the shrine's 100th anniversary, the Meiji Jingu Museum was opened to display treasures connected to Emperor Meiji and Empress Shoken which were formerly kept in the Meiji Jingu Homotsuden (Treasure Museum).

    Tokyo Shibuya-ku Jingumae 1-5-3
    A Shinto shrine built in 1940 located close to Takeshita Street in Jingumae, Shibuya City, Tokyo. The shrine is dedicated to Togo Heihachiro, commander of Japan's combined fleet during the Russo-Japanese War. Due to the fact that he led Japan to victory in the war, he is also said to be a god of victory and the shrine is visited by large numbers of people praying for success in a given matter.

    I agree with another reviewer, if you are in the area and you have visited all the main tourist attractions, then this is worth a stop but dont make a special trip unless you are really interested...

    Tokyo Shibuya-ku Sendagaya 1-1-24
    A Shinto shrine located in 1 Chome Sendagaya, Shibuya City, Tokyo. The shrine is dedicated to Emperor Ojin and Empress Jingu. The main shrine building was destroyed in the war and later rebuilt, but a large sacred gingko tree on the grounds survived the destruction and still grows today. The shrine's Sendagaya no Fuji-zuka, a traditional Fuji-zuka mound modeled after Mt. Fuji, was built on the shrine's grounds in 1789, and today it is registered as a Tangible Folk Cultural Property by the Tokyo Metropolitan Government.

    こちらは、千駄ヶ谷の住宅地にある神社です。 境内には、都の有形民俗文化財指定の築山富士、「将棋の聖地」と呼ばれるが将棋堂があり、見どころがたくさんあり、外国人にも人気があるようで、当日はけっこう人がいました。

    Tokyo Meguro-ku Ohashi 2-16-21
    "Located here is a ""chinjugami,"" a type of guardian deity that watches over the surrounding area, and this one in particular has been here since the area was called Kamimeguro-mura. The shrine is mainly dedicated to Susanoo, a Shinto deity associated with eradicating disease. Also enshrined here is the Sun Goddess, Amaterasu, and Sugawara Michizane , a Shinto deity for learning and scholarship. At the front you can find stone steps formed from a natural cliff that makes up the ""Fuji Sengen Shrine Mountain Path,"" which until 1985 was a spot where visitors could look up at Mt. Fuji. Nowadays, the shrine is mostly associated with warding off bad spirits and celebrating different stages of life, including a rite of passage for newborns called ""miyamairi"", and for children reaching the age of seven, five, and three called ""shichi-go-san."" Ever since the Tensho era (1573-1593) during an enshrinement, there are records and legends preserved here regarding disease and illnesses unknown to ""ujigami,"" a type of guardian deity that wards off sickness."

    Tokyo Shibuya-ku Shibuya 3-5-12
    An ancient Shinto shrine founded in 1092. It is said that the Shibuya neighborhood has its origins with Shibuya Heizo Shigeie, who lead the vanguard in the Later Three Years' War (1083 - 1087), and the establishment of his castle. Formerly known as both Hachimangu Shrine and Shibuya Hachimangu Shrine, it was renamed Konno Hachimangu Shrine after Shibuya Heizo Shigeie's renowned son Konnomaru. Originally a god of war, many still visit today to improve their luck at work, advance their careers, and improve fertility.

    Tokyo Shibuya-ku Jingu-mae 5-chome 26-6

    初詣に行きました。明治神宮などの大規模な神社と違ってとても静かで凛とした気持ちになれます。 渋谷と原宿の中間あたりの住宅地の中なので初めての際は分かりにくいかもしれません。地元でも由緒ある有名な神社で、地域のお祭り拠点にもなっているようで時期によっては街角に幟もみえます。 こじんまりとした神社なので屋台とかの賑やかさはなく長期間滞在できるような観光要素のある場所ではないです。 また、金髪の高校生の...

The setting of countless iconic movie scenes and the inspiration for songs, poetry, and literature worldwide, Tokyo barely requires an introduction. It’s hard for the kaleidoscopic neon lights, wacky pop culture, and some of the world’s tallest structures not to instill excitement in any first-time visitor to Tokyo, whether you’re in the very center of the hustle and bustle in Shinjuku or Shibuya or looking in from the quieter suburbs.
