After being picked up from your hotel, we'll take a JR train or subway to reach the largest Shinto shrine in Tokyo.

Situated in the heart of a vast forest, the main square offers a serene and sacred atmosphere. Remarkably, the entire forest is man-made. Immerse yourself in the tranquility and experience traditional Shinto-style architecture.
