Description:
- During the Meiji Era, people celebrated the birthday of Emperor Meiji (1852-1912) by designating it as the nation's Culture Day. This tradition continues to live in modern Japan, with the grand annual celebration centering on Meiji Jingu, the shrine dedicated to him. Of everybody's interest would be the demonstration of traditional Japanese archery near the shrine's Treasure Museum and the yabusame archery on horseback show in the vicinity of the Shibaike along the shrine's western approach. Admission is free.
