What to expect

Meiji Shrine, located in a lush forest, is the most visited shrine in Japan. On this small-group tour of up to 10 people, a local guide explains Shinto and the Japanese Imperial system. Experience the calm heart of Japanese tradition. Meiji Shrine offers a stunning natural escape in the heart of the city, surrounded by approximately 100,000 trees. As you walk along the shaded path, listening to birdsong, you’ll encounter Japan’s largest wooden torii gate. Crafted from a 1,500-year-old Taiwanese cypress, this towering 12-meter structure leaves visitors awestruck with its powerful presence. When passing through the torii, it’s customary to walk along the edges of the path to avoid the sacred central route, known as seichu, reserved for deities.
