It is the most famous temple of Tokyo. The temple was built to commemorate the Emperor Meiji-the late 19th-century king of Japan. The Meiji shrine is simple and pure, with no more colors or frills like other Asian temples or services such as the Buddhist temple in Asakusa. The 12m high entrance is housed in 200 square acres of tablets made from the 1,500 year old cypress tree.
The temple is open from morning to evening, free entrance.
