The approach to Konnoh Hachimangu Shrine in Shibuya was through a wooden gate, heading straight to the hall of worship. Incidentally, this small gate is designated as a tangible cultural property of Shibuya Ward. Lanterns were hung on both sides of the approach, and the precincts were still in their New Year's attire.

The gate was decorated with a flat plaque and a paper hanging below it. As this is not a very famous shrine, the number of visitors to the shrine is intermittent. In contrast to the nearby Meiji Shrine, the grounds are peaceful. If you want to pray to your heart's content, Konnoh Hachimangu is probably better than Meiji Jingu. The gods may listen to your wishes to their heart's content.
