Next comes the park itself and the Meiji Shrine, which is in the center of the park. Either my timing was very good or very bad because I got there just as they were starting some sort of Shinto ceremony. I had no idea what any of it meant but they were banging on a really big drum (that I could barely see) so it was pretty cool.
Apparently Hillary Clinton visited the shrine two days later as part of her first diplomatic stop as Secretary of State (the original shrine was destroyed in WWII).
