💡 Tips for Visitors

Cash is recommended as most shrines don't accept cards for offerings or omamori (amulets). Early morning visits offer the most peaceful atmosphere and best lighting for photos. Basic shrine etiquette includes bowing before entering through the torii gate and purifying your hands at the temizuya water basin before approaching the main hall.
