Meiji Jingu

#ancienttownvibes Meiji Jingu is a serene and sacred shrine known for its significance as a place of prayer, blessings, and good luck charms, as well as for drawing lots of divination, cherished by local residents. We visited on a Saturday, and while it was quite crowded, the atmosphere was lively and spiritual. The walk through the beautiful forested paths to enter and exit the shrine added to the experience, creating a sense of calm and reverence despite the bustling crowds. It was an unusual and memorable visit, offering a glimpse into local traditions and culture. A must-visit for anyone seeking a meaningful connection to Japan’s heritage.
