About

Before Shibuya was Shibuya, it was the domain of the Shibuya clan, and this shrine was their guardian. Its gorgeous Edo-period red gate and main hall were donated by the shogunal household, and the shrine treasures include clan relics. The Konno-zakura, a cherry tree with single and double blossoms on the same branch, is said to have been planted by Minamoto no Yoritomo. Despite sitting a short walk from the Scramble, the shrine is an island of calm with a Shibuya-themed goshuin and seasonal festivals that local office workers love.
