What other travelers are saying about Hokkaido Shrine
A breathtakingly beautiful Japanese shrine, especially in winter, when the snow-covered landscape creates a magical wonderland. The gigantic Torii gate adds to its majestic charm, making it a must-visit spot. The shrine offers various services, including car blessings, marriage ceremonies, and other traditional prayers. A popular destination for both tourists and those seeking spiritual blessings. Highly recommended for a serene and picturesque experience!
It is a beautiful park with beautiful scenery for a peaceful stroll. It has a temple within, too. Greetings by a mobile coffee station at the park entrance. A hot beverage can be exceptionally smoothing during the winter months. There's a shop within, just before reaching the temple. A must try thingy. Some Japanese pressed biscuits. You will not miss it because there's always a queue. Some food stalls are also available at the entrance to the temple. Reachable within 5 minutes walk via the local subway.
Great place to visit. Peaceful and relaxing environment amongst the greenery. Spotted some wildlife as well.
Visited on a Japanese festival weekend (七五三) and saw many families with their children decked out in festive attire. Alright to observe the proceedings, though just to be respectful as it is a sacred shrine.
We visited the temple on new year’s eve and it was such a unique and amazing reeling to start the year very peacefully. Eventhough there was a lot of people, everyone was patient, respectful and very organized. Beautiful park, beautiful temple, i highly suggest everyone to visit
I visited on a Saturday in December. There wasn't a huge crowd. We went just before 4pm only to know that the gates to the temple will be closed at 4pm after sounding the drums. Some of the tourists had to return back without going inside.
