Temple tours in Tokyo

Temple tours in Tokyo usually pair its two big names: Senso-ji in Asakusa, the city's oldest temple, reached through the Kaminarimon gate and the Nakamise shopping street, and the forested Meiji Shrine beside Harajuku. City-day tours string them together with Shibuya and the Skytree; walking tours treat each on its own, with Asakusa Shrine next to Senso-ji. Smaller themed walks visit Nezu Shrine in Yanaka or the lucky-cat temple of Gotokuji. Meiji Shrine opens at sunrise and closes at sunset.
