ภาพรวม
Yasukuni Shrine is among the most significant and politically sensitive religious sites in Japan, enshrining over 2.46 million individuals who died in service of the Japanese state from the Boshin War of 1868 through World War II. The shrine's Symbolic Registry lists military personnel, nurses, factory workers, and others. The shrine became internationally controversial after the 1978 enshrinement of fourteen Class A war criminals, including wartime Prime Minister Tojo Hideki. Visits by Japanese prime ministers and government officials continue to draw diplomatic protests, particularly from China and South Korea. Regardless of political perspectives, the shrine is architecturally notable for its massive bronze torii (one of the largest in Japan), the Yushukan military history museum, and its role as the official cherry blossom viewing reference point for Tokyo.
