This serene spot is surrounded by the hustle and bustle of
Shibuya.
The walkway to the shrine is a
wide path through a verdant forest. There are casks of sake wine on display as a
devotional offering.
It is a Shinto
shrine, so the entrance is marked by an impressive torii gate, indicating that
you are entering sacred grounds.
Devotees
of Shinto write prayers on small wooden plaques and post them.
The inner sanctuary is closed to the public,
but can be seen from outside.
