 Tips about Meiji Jingu

Meiji Jingu Shrine in Tokyo is a peaceful escape with impressive wooden structures and traditional Japanese design elements. Visitors can witness Shinto rituals, walk through a lush forest, and enjoy the calming atmosphere perfect for contemplation.

What to do: Walk through the forest, witness traditional Shinto rituals, make offerings, and appreciate the stunning architecture.
What to eat: Visitors can enjoy the peaceful surroundings but food offerings inside the shrine are limited, so it is recommended to eat beforehand or nearby.
What to avoid: Visitors are not allowed inside the temple itself, so respect this rule.
Tips to enhance your experience: Bring a UV umbrella in summer for shade, follow local customs, and avoid walking in paths reserved for deities for a respectful visit.
