明治神宮 Meiji-Shrine

hello there, do you know the Meiji-shrine? It is located in Tokyo and near by the Harajuku Station. It is close to the station and it takes about 2 min. There is enshrined Meiji emperor and empress.

It was originally used as another house of Kato who was leader of Higo domain. In 1874, the house bought by the Meiji Government and used as deposit of fuel.

There are many foreigners than Japanese, they were took many photos. The atmosphere was even though in the down town, not noisy and quiet.The red leaves was pretty good and I took a lot of photo in spite of myself.
