Tokyo Shrine with Pictures of Japanese People 100 Years Ago

Video of frontal visit to Meiji Shrine

Meiji Jingu, the sun of Meiji era
A sacred place for the Japanese people that makes you want to say "Tataima" every time you visit.
It is hard to believe that this shrine is a space that was prepared only 150 years ago, in the Meiji era.

When we visit shrines in Tokyo, we are often amazed at the sanctuaries that have been protected by the people.
Flood, fire, earthquake, war, and worship.
Small shrines, shrines perched on the rooftops of buildings, and shrines directly under expressways.
Sanctuaries that are close to people in any form, and the guardians who protect them.
I made this video to share these beautiful images with you!
The Japanese landscape and the Japanese people of the past remain in old photographs.
Some of the photos are around 100 years old, some are about 150 years old, and some are 85 years old.
Please feel the connection with people from the past!
