Main entrance to Meiji Shrine, Japan’s oldest shrine.
It’s a long walk into the shrine itself, but its worth a visit in there, to pray for anything, and buy those Japanese amulets (the Love ones seem to work!) for yourselves or as souvenirs
We were also lucky to witness a wedding ceremony being held at the shrine.
Meji Shrine is located next to Harajuku Station. A sharp contrast between the young and old cos Harajuku is known to be a teens hangout place and if you go on a Sunday (which we did), you will see the Meiji Shrine entrance crowded with Jap-punks playing dress-up.
Oh ya, there is a Snoopy merchandise shop called Snoopy Town just opposite Harajuka station. Wife went ga-ga over it :)
