Nakameguro Hachiman Shrine
|
Pure natural water at heart of Tokyo
|
Understood to be constructed during Kanbun period in Edo-era
(around 1660), Nakameguro Hachiman Shrine is located only
minutes walk away from busy Nakameguro station.
The shrine is blessed with many big old trees so the space
keeps its silence and naturally refreshes visiting people.
A small spring can be found by the stairs to the shrine hall.
When we visited, we met local residents with empty bottles
who told us they come once occasionally to take water for
making teas. According to them, the tea made with this water
tastes distinctly delicious.
