Matsuri at Seta Tamagawa Shrine in Setagaya-Ku, Tokyo

There's a matsuri (festival) Starting today, October 16th at 5 pm until tomorrow 9 pm at the Matsuri at Seta Tamagawa Shrine in Setagaya-Ku, Tokyo.

Folks, I think this is one of the best festivals in Tokyo that is run by a smaller shrine. It has everything the bigger shrines have, without the massive crowds.


To get to the festival, take the Den-en-Toshi line from Shibuya to Futagotamagawa Station (about 10 minutes). Take the West exit and you will see signs everywhere like this:


I take my family every year as, like I said, this is one of the best small shrine festivals in Tokyo

Comments must be succinct & relevant to the story. Comments are checked frequently and abusive, rude or profane comments will be deleted. I’m just one of many bloggers who answer questions online and sometimes for the press. I usually handle questions about Japan, marketing or the economy, so in those areas I’m more likely to make sense and less likely to say something really stupid. If I post something here that you find helpful or interesting, that’s wonderful. This is my personal blog. If you don't like what you have read here then, just like when you go into a restaurant or bar that allows smoking, if you don't like it, there's something at the front that has hinges on it and it is called a "door."
