Spring Serenity at Koenji Hikawa Shrine💐

#aprilblooms I dropped by Koenji Hikawa Shrine this spring, and although it’s a compact little spot near the station, it was buzzing with visitors! It has this peaceful, cozy vibe — perfect for a quick spiritual break during a city stroll. The hanachozu (flower-filled water basin) was especially pretty, adding a colorful touch to the shrine’s atmosphere. Even though it’s small, there’s something really charming about this place. Locals clearly love it — I saw a steady stream of people coming to pray and snap a few pics. It’s a lovely stop if you’re in the Koenji area, especially during springtime. Why You Should Visit: ✔ Conveniently located close to Koenji Station, perfect for a quick visit. ✔ Beautiful seasonal flower arrangements in the water basin (hanachozu). 📍Address: 4 Chome−44−19 Koenjiminami, Suginami City, Tokyo 166-0003 #koenji #tokyo #japan #springintokyo #hikawashrine #hanachozu
