Meiji Shrine ~ Tokyo

In front of the 2nd Torri Gate at the Shrine.
Despina fell asleep during our walk to the Shrine.
Entrance of the main Shrine.
For Y500 you can write a wish on a piece of wood to hang at the Shrine. There were about 5 walls of wishes!
On our walk to the Shrine.

We were also able to see the Meiji Shrine. It is in a wooded area in an area of Tokyo called Harajuku. To get to the main Shrine you had to walk down a pebble path in the woods. It has the biggest (or one of the biggest....I don't remember which) Torri gates made of wood. They were amazing!
