All Reviews of Hanazono Shrine

Hanazono Shrine is located in the busy Shinjuku area. The shrine’s vivid red color looked striking in the sunlight, and as someone seeing it for the first time, it made a strong visual impression. The fallen ginkgo leaves in autumn added even more depth to the scene.

I came this time for the open-air market held every Sunday morning. It isn’t a large market, but it has a nice mix of Showa-era vintage items and everyday goods. There were quite a few Western visitors here as well. It’s a good spot for anyone who enjoys slowly hunting for finds in a relaxed atmosphere.

When I passed by Hanazono Shrine, I noticed quite a few tourists and locals stopping in to pay their respects.

It’s really special that a traditional space like this has been preserved in the middle of such a busy downtown area.

It’s amazing that there’s such a მშვიდful shrine right in the middle of bustling Shinjuku.

The moment I stepped in, it instantly felt so much quieter. Really amazing.

It has such a great vibe when it’s lit up at night.

Every photo turns out amazing, no matter how you shoot it.

The lighting is beautiful, creating a peaceful and sacred atmosphere. The vibe is just fantastic!

A big shrine suddenly appears in the middle of Shinjuku’s busy streets. The bright red torii gate and main hall really stand out. It's also famous for bringing good luck in the performing arts. So, here's hoping I get more talented! (Leaving it up to fate)
