日比谷太神宮（麹町區有樂町）
Hibiya Daijingu (Yurakucho, Kojimachi Ward)
At the end of a gleaming white approach, a torii gate waits quietly. The grounds of a Meiji-era shrine in Hibiya, built so people could worship the Ise Grand Shrine from afar.
About this photo
A bright stone approach runs in a straight line from the foreground into the distance, with a torii gate standing at its end. Beyond the torii, the roof of a long, low building peeks out, and on the left, dark trees grow thick. In the right foreground, a building with a large, curving roof juts into the scene.
The location note reads "Yurakucho, Kojimachi Ward" (麹町區有樂町). Today's Tokyo Daijingu was founded in 1880 as a shrine in Tokyo for worshiping the Ise Grand Shrine from afar. It first stood in Hibiya and was popularly known as "Hibiya Daijingu."
On both sides of the approach, low shapes that may be lanterns or stands face each other, marking off the width of the white path.
