Nezu

Sendagi

Famous for its Azalea Festival in spring, this is Nezu Shrine’s other major yearly festival. This festival has been held continuously since the time when Tokyo was known as Edo, being one of the more well known festivals from the period. As is typical, there will be processions with energetically paraded mikoshi (portable shrines) as well as yatai (food stalls) around the shrine.
