Destacados

Nakano's Numabukuro Hikawa Shrine is a tranquil and historic site. It is home to the "Three Wishes Pine," where tying an ema (wooden prayer plaque) is believed to grant three wishes. The tour offers a unique opportunity to experience a traditional Shinto ritual inside the shrine's main hall, which is typically closed to the public. After the blessing, participants can write and dedicate their ema. The shrine also features the Seven Lucky Gods and has become popular among anime fans as it appears in series like Demon Slayer and Tokyo Revengers. The tour includes a prayer ritual, an ema dedication, and omamori (protective amulet) as souvenirs, providing a rich blend of Japanese tradition and pop culture. Religious Considerations: While this tour involves Shinto rituals, participation in religious activities is optional. Visitors of different faiths can observe the rituals without fully participating. Respect for the practices and customs of the shrine is appreciated.

About Tokio

Barrios de neón, santuarios tranquilos, comida excelente y distritos singulares: Tokio es una metrópolis inmensa y ordenada, de trenes puntuales.

Cada distrito parece una ciudad propia. El famoso cruce de Shibuya y las torres, los bares y los callejones de Golden Gai en Shinjuku vibran de energía, mientras que Harajuku mezcla la moda juvenil con la calma boscosa del santuario Meiji Jingu. En Asakusa, el templo Sensō-ji y su calle comercial mantienen vivo un Tokio más antiguo, y Ginza ofrece elegantes grandes almacenes y galerías.

Top-ranked sights in Tokio: Senso-ji Temple (Asakusa Temple), Tokyo Imperial Palace, Meiji Shrine (Meiji Jingu).
