Akasaka Hikawa Shrine, where we got lucky to visit during the late September Aki Matsuri festival, is located in the heart of Tokyo and offers a peaceful escape from the bustling city life. While I can't attest to the shrine itself as we were so busy with the actual festival, it's situated in a great neighborhood that's notably very ritzy - featuring the most expensive cars I've seen together on one street outside of South Beach Miami or Beverly Hills. With its lush greenery and historical significance, this shrine has maintained its original form since the Edo period, making it a unique and sacred place known for its association with good marriages and love fulfillment.
