明治神宮(Meiji Jingu Shrine)





明治神宮(Meiji Jingu Shrine)是1920【大正9】年為祭奉明治天皇和昭憲皇后而修建的神社。明治神宮占地面積70万平方米,神社內12万棵樹木和草坪綠地環抱,環境靜謐,空氣新鮮。每年新年前後,來此參拜的日本人將近100萬人。人們經常在此為結婚、生育、成人式、交通安全、昇學等進行祈禱和祝福。在這里可以觀賞日本最具代表性的神社的建筑風格。

The Meiji Jingu is a Shinto shrine in Shibuya, Tokyo dedicated to the deified spirits of Emperor Meiji and Empress Shouken. After the emperor’s death in 1912, the Japanese Diet passed a resolution to commemorate his role in the Meiji Restoration. It was erected in the area where the emperor and the empress frequently visited irises.
