When the light turns green, people pour in from all directions and cross the intersection in an orderly way. It's really impressive to see.

Kumano-Hayatama Taisha Grand Shrine
Known as a “place of spiritual renewal,” this grand shrine draws a steady stream of worshippers seeking the courage and resolve to take a new step at life’s turning points. Together with Kumano-Hongu Taisha Grand Shrine and Kumano-Nachi Taisha Grand Shrine, it forms the Kumano Sanzan. This ancient shrine is the head shrine of the 5,000 Kumano shrines throughout Japan. It was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2004.
This is one of the three Kumano shrines. Legend says the gods of Kumano descended here to build a new palace, and that's how Shingu City got its name. Among the three, Hayatama Taisha is the easiest to walk around.

Kagurazaka
Kagurazaka, in Shinjuku, Tokyo, first got its start as a bustling geisha district. Visitors here will find a large shopping street that’s home to trendy shops and cafes, but just a few steps from the main drag sits a few cozy, veteran Japanese eateries, chic cobblestone streets and black, wood-latticed fences.
During the day, it's calm and peaceful, but at night, it has a totally different vibe.

Chiba Park
Chiba Park offers cherry blossoms in spring, Oga Lotus in summer and fall colors. It is known for Oga Lotus, which is called the world’s oldest flower. During its blooming season from late June to mid July, many tourists come to visit and different events are held commemorating Oga Lotus.
The park is really nice. If you love lotus flowers, this is definitely the place to visit.
