Best Shinto shrine in japan

D	Douglas on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This is one of the most famous shrine in Japan, which is located in Nikko san area. The buildings and statues are so beautiful with historical values, so you will absolutely enjoy your visit here. It has a famous statue called three monkeys which describes a image of whole life. And there is so famous ceiling drawing, Nakiryuu, which means crying dragon. Taking picture inside is prohibited, so please enjoy when you visit there.
E	Eric Meulien on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Nikko is a huge park with the famous Tokugawa Ieyasu shrines but also a primal forest populated with monkeys, and countless smaller sites to visit and trails to experience. I recommend spending three days in Nikko, finding lodging in one of the local ryokan. Winter is beautiful and summer very busy but stunning. The Matsuri or grand parade held every May 17 and 18 is beautiful and include archery competition. A unique experience.
#	#TheFrugalTraveller Leah Lacsina on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ One of the oldest shrines in Japan. You can explore the insides of the shrine by paying 1800++ yen. Inside the shrine, you will be able to see the 3 monkeys, the 12 astrological sign plus, the sleeping cat and the Crying Dragon which is said to give you goodluck. If you are lucky (like the time we went there) a monk prayed for us via a special prayer.
C	Christian Ardito on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Nikko is a lovely little town with lots to see - perfect for a day trip. Tosho-gu is probably the main attraction. You can walk there from the JR station or take a bus if you don't feel like walking. I recommend walking since we are talking about less than 4 miles and there's lots to see. The complex is absolutely gorgeous with tons of impressive shrines and structures. One of my favorite during this first trip to Japan.
B	Bijay Thulung Rai on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Beautiful shrine. Love it’s history and architecture wise it’s amazing master piece. Notes: To enter this shrine you need to buy ticket worth 1300¥ for adult.
A	Annie Sobol on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The parking lot to this place is quite crowded on the weekends - it was also peak autumn season. The wait to park was a long time - the shrine itself was crowded as well. The complex is very impressive indeed, what I discovered is that the Three Wise Monkeys originated here. ??? You’ve probably heard of the proverb “see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil.” Some of the building were under construction with scaffolding and tenting too. I’d like to come back and explore more when it is off season.
K	Kevin Kwok on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ December 2021 the main gate was still under construction :( sad but this shrine is still worth visiting, amazing sights and colors. Admission is worth it. You can easily spend 2 hours here.
N	NervousBunnyGaming on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The most beautiful temples I’ve visited in Japan so far. The protection of these buildings is immaculate and they weren’t burnt down in some fire and rebuilt in the 1900’s they are actually four hundred years old and are just taken care of and repainted very well. I could feel the history breathing in and out of this place. Tokugawa’s treasures were well kept and I just can’t describe in clear words how happy that I, a history lover, was to to be able to touch and be so close to something so old and well taken care of for the public. I think Tokugawa would be proud at how many people love and respect his family’s heirlooms and resting places.
