Enjoying a tranquil moment at Atsuta Shrine

When visiting Nagoya, you simply cannot miss the Atsuta Shrine, which boasts a history of over a thousand years. This is not only a religious sanctuary but also a must-visit tourist attraction. It feels like an oasis in the city, offering a temporary escape from the hustle and bustle, allowing visitors to immerse themselves in the ancient and serene atmosphere of this historic city. This time, I took the Meitetsu Nagoya Main Line and got off at 'Jingumae Station.' From there, it was just a few minutes' walk to the shrine! Upon entering, the towering torii gates and lush green approach paths create a stark contrast to the urban noise. Inside the shrine, the solemn and peaceful ambiance brings a sense of calmness. Along the way, you can also see ancient sacred trees and traditional architecture, exuding a rich historical charm. After paying your respects, why not stop by the teahouse to enjoy some classic local delicacies?
