What other travelers are saying about Kanda Myojin Shrine
Pretty crowed on the straight towards the main gate but the side streets are much less congested. Lots of kimono shops and restaurants. Close train ride from and to Tokyo sky tree but be careful you are entering through the correct gates/exits. It’s easy to get stuck if you aren’t familiar with the lines. Plenty of tourist shops but also some artisan handmade goods as well. Beautiful architecture, bronze, and stone work. Great spot for pictures. Shrine is very active and close to the Ginza line. There is an outdoor smoking section to the right of the main building by the toilets. Plenty to do and see but be aware that it’s most busy before sundown.
The shrines surrounding the main building were steeped in history and culture. Each shrine was from a different area and was renovated when placed again.
The store is filled with handmade goods that I absolutely adored. Hand carved statues, history books, foods and spices. Everything is neat and orderly.
This beautiful Shinto shrine is a must-visit, with a lovely souvenir shop that appears to be newly built. There’s also a charming restaurant on-site where we enjoyed a delicious meal. The overall atmosphere of the place is serene and inviting. I highly recommend stopping by, both for the spiritual experience and the excellent food.
A stunning shrine located just a short distance from Akihabara, offering a peaceful retreat from the city's energy. Visited on March 1, 2025, and was lucky to see an early-blooming sakura—a breathtaking sight that made the visit even more special!
Shrine with a beautiful gate, one of the prettiest I've seen. There's a cute little shopping street leading up to the main shrine. We also happened to visit during a festival, which was fun to be a part of.
