Before Meiji's rule , Japan was ruled by Daimyo dominated by Tokugawa Shogunate.
This period was called as Edo period as it was Edo city which is now called as Tokyo City .
After Meiji Succeeded Daimyo-- Meiji Era came which is also called as a Restoration Stage .
as Meiji changed the Socio-Economic Conditions of Japan and Modernized Japan this is also a World Restoration Stage .Edo city is now called as Tokyo
The Meiji Shrine was built in commemoration to the great Emperor Meiji who brought Japan to new heights during the Meiji Restoration Era.
There are about 10,000- 12,000 tress in the campus..
Shintoism means an Integration of east and west ...i have heard from some of my colleagues that these people marry in a temple but funeral is in the church ....there is a integration of both the cultures ......the east and the west .
This is the hot spot for Marriage and first prayers during new years.
It was Meiji who changed the Edo City to Tokyo.....the man behind the scene !
The Entrance :
The Meiji gardens with Iris Flowers
The sacred well...
Cleanse your hands before moving towards the shrine...
Unlike India - Its not legs its your hands which you need to cleanse before entering the temple..
Dear God...Pls take care of my mom...
An envelope .a paper and pen is kept for you to write down your prayers ....cool...
