Exploring Tokyo Shrines | Myogi Shrine, a must-see for cat lovers🐾

Tokyo has countless shrines, but Myogi Shrine in Komagome, Toshima Ward, stands out. It boasts a guardian cat, the "komagome," the legendary shrine cat, and beautifully designed black cat amulets that are so captivating you'll want to collect them! 🌙✨

The shrine itself isn't large, tucked away in a quiet residential alley, but it offers a uniquely relaxing atmosphere. My favorite is the stained-glass amulet! The vibrant colors shine through, creating a truly stunning sight.
In the summer, you can even see wind chimes, and even "Mizumikuji" and "Zeniarai Benzaiten" amulets.
📍It's only a 6-minute walk from JR Komagome Station!
