There was a festival going on when I visited, and the atmosphere was super lively.
Compared to Meiji Jingu, Okunitama-jinja feels more local because of its location, so you see a lot more people from the area.
Everyone was really sincere in their prayers, which made it feel warm and welcoming.

Fuchu City Tourism Information Center
This tourist information center is close to Okunitama-jinja Shrine. A staff member is always there who is knowledgeable about tourist sites in Fuchu City to answer questions. The service is only in Japanese but sightseeing maps in English are there. Stop by before you explore Fuchu.
It's right next to Okunitama-jinja Shrine, and there are plenty of free tourist brochures you can pick up. There's also a cute mascot that seems to represent Fuchu City. ☺️

Mito Castle
The ruins sit on a plain 90m above the ground. The castle was inhabited by the Mito Nanbu Clan from the late Muromachi period to the early Edo period. In the Edo period, the Morioka became the main residence in this heavily fortified castle, which explains the time period.
Being surrounded by so many cherry blossoms here just makes you feel happy 🌸
