Скачать или смотреть Central Tokyo's Quiet Hidden Gem

For travelers visiting Tokyo, Hie-jinja (Hie Shrine) is a strong recommendation. Even though the shrine is located in the heart of the city, Hie-jinja stands uniquely, high up on a tree-covered hill, offering a peaceful escape from the daily bustle.

AND they have torii (gates), 90 of them forming a tunnel to walk through.

We recommend setting aside around one hour for your visit. There are numerous spots to take some beautiful photographs of this traditional working shrine. At Hie-jinja, you can catch a true glimpse of daily Japanese life.

It's free to enter, and can be easily accessed from anywhere in downtown Tokyo.
