Hidden away in Bunkyo ward, the Nezu Shrine is one of Tokyo’s oldest and most beautiful Shinto shrines, with a history said to stretch back 1,900 years. Famous for its vibrant vermillion torii gates, serene ponds, and elegant traditional architecture, the shrine offers a peaceful retreat from the city’s fast pace.
Each spring, Nezu Shrine bursts into color during the Azalea Festival (Tsutsuji Matsuri), when over 3,000 azalea bushes bloom across the hillside, attracting visitors from all over Japan. The sight of the torii-lined pathways framed by blossoms creates an unforgettable atmosphere of harmony and beauty.
Whether you come to admire its historic structures, stroll through its tranquil gardens, or witness seasonal festivals, Nezu Shrine is a hidden gem that captures the spirit of old Tokyo. 🌸✨
