What people say

Dan Tanda
"Nezu Shrine, a short way from Tokyo's famous Ueno Park, has its roots in almost 2,000 years of Japanese history. Nezu Shrine is famous first and foremost for its azalea garden that is a riot of vivid spring pinks, whites and purples in April. But even when the azaleas are not in bloom, Nezu Shrine is a must-see for its elegant old buildings, kept in pristine condition with crisp, colorful traditional designs. One architectural feature of note is the hundreds of torii archways that make tunnel-like paths around part of the grounds."
"9 AM - One of Japan's oldest shrines. Great picture spots with torii gates surrounded by lush greenery "
Alexandria Ugarte
"Tranquil Shinto shrine known for its tunnel-like series of torii gates & spring azalea blooms."
