Trivia: There is a well inside Meiji Jingu called “Kiyomasa-no Ido” and it’s believed to be a “power spot”. This is very famous and people say it brings you luck if you take a picture and place it on the home screen of your phone. Unfortunately it was closed but when I went there a few years ago, there was a long line to the well just to take a picture. I remember asking a person behind me to hold my spot while I go to the restroom because I went there alone.

  2. Meiji Shrine is a nice place!

  4. Thanks for this video of your calm and serene walk of this lovely shrine in this beautiful setting. The map and directions and even the little detail about your bowing under the gates…. Your videos are both informative and engaging.
