📝 Personal Impressions
Shiba Daijingu is very close to the subway station, the kind of shrine that suddenly appears when you turn a corner in the city. The shrine is small but surprisingly quiet and solemn, standing out as especially calm amid the high-rise buildings of Minato Ward.

There were hardly any people that day, so I could quietly walk around the grounds. There is a cute "Enmusubi Bell," said to be very effective for love luck, and many pink ema plaques, showing that love prayers are a major focus here. Although there is no grand torii gate or long approach, the overall atmosphere is very pleasant, perfect for a quick visit to pray before continuing your journey.
