Overview
Nogi Shrine is dedicated to prominent Meiji-era elder statesman Maresuke Nogi and his wife. Covering over 100,000 square feet of land, including the area once occupied by the Nogi family residence, the shrine is a tranquil, verdant space in the middle of a bustling metropolis. On the fourth Sunday of every month, the shrine also hosts antique fairs where crowds come to browse old Japanese tools and other items.
