Kumano Shrine

Reviewed By GeorgiaHerring - LaGrangeville, United States

We found this shrine accidentally while walking around the park. As we strolled on the western part of the park, we saw a Shinto wedding and watched the ceremony. There are many local residents using the shrine to offer daily prayers as well as an information booth with Shinto priests to answer your questions. I would recommend a visit after viewing the observatory at the Tokyo Met Building. After visiting many larger shrines in Tokyo, this one is the most authentic and historic (dating back to the 1400s) that we saw.
