Nezu Shrine
Nezu Shrine is Tokyo's finest surviving example of Edo-period shrine architecture, with all seven original buildings designated Important Cultural Properties. The shrine's annual Azalea Festival in April-May transforms the hillside garden into a sea of pink and red blossoms, drawing hundreds of thousands of visitors.

The small torii-lined path through the shrine grounds is often compared to Kyoto's Fushimi Inari, offering a similar tunnel effect on a smaller scale.
