Meiji Jingu, one of the rare places we've been able to visit 20 years later (though it's much more crowded now, as you'd expect), is a Shinto shrine located in Tokyo, Japan. It's open every day from sunrise to sunset, and you can visit for free, though the shrine has different opening hours depending on the month, so make sure to check before you go. Inside, you'll find peaceful gardens and historical buildings that offer a glimpse into Japanese culture and tradition - consider this just one large nature park near Harajuku. Both times we visited, we saw a wedding procession, which was fantastic. It's a great place to explore and experience the beauty of Shinto rituals, and it's very recommended.
