At a Glance
The current main hall was rebuilt in 1993 using all-keyaki wood construction after the original was destroyed in WWII air raids, preserving over 1,000 years of shrine history.
Its Fujizuka is Tokyo's oldest miniature Mount Fuji that still stands in its original location, dating back to the Edo period.

The shrine is exceptionally accessible with three train stations within 5 minutes walking distance: JR Sendagaya Station, Toei Oedo Line Kokuritsu-Kyogijo Station, and Tokyo Metro Fukutoshin Line Kita-Sando Station.
Visit in late November to see the sacred ginkgo tree at its peak golden color, which creates a stunning contrast against the shrine's dark wooden buildings. The tree towers prominently over the grounds and is considered the shrine's御神木 (sacred tree).
Beyond the main shrine, explore the peaceful Shinmei-sha sub-shrine surrounded by bamboo where you can quietly pay respects to Amaterasu Omikami.

You can reach the shrine easily from three nearby stations, all within a 5-minute walk: JR Sendagaya, Toei Oedo Line Kokuritsu-Kyogijo, and Tokyo Metro Fukutoshin Line Kita-Sando.
If you visit in late November, the sacred ginkgo tree (the shrine's御神木) turns a deep gold that stands out sharply against the dark wooden buildings. It towers over the grounds and is hard to miss. Beyond the main hall, a small path leads to Shinmei-sha, a quiet sub-shrine tucked among bamboo where you can pay respects to Amaterasu Omikami.

The Fujizuka mound is climbable, but the footing is steep and rocky with rope handrails for support, so wear shoes with a solid grip and take your time.
