Japan – Tokyo

The beneficial one day Tokyo trip with Doreen-san



Meiji Jingu - a Shinto shrine. Shinto is called Japan's ancient original religion, and it is deeply rooted in the way of Japanese life. This shrine is dedicated to the divine souls of Emperor Meiji (passed away in 1912) and his consort Empress Shoken (passed away in 1914).
