1
Setagaya Hachiman Shrine
This Shinto shrine was established more than 900 years ago and has long been worshipped by local people as a guardian shrine of the community. Other than the colorful shrine building, you will visit a large open space used for a special purpose at annual festival and a tiny subsidiary shrine by a small but beautiful pond and mini-waterfall. Enjoy the serene atmosphere and guess what the space is used for.
2
Gotokuji temple
Built in late 15c, this Buddhist temple, although not so large in scale, has a lot to offer; a very Japanese view with scattering maple trees and a three-story pagoda, a large incense burner with a roaring Chinese lion on top, etc. Above all, however, its biggest charm is hundreds of beckoning cat figurines. The temple has a fascinating story which links it with the cats, and you will learn it in this tour!
3
Local administrator's residence
For about 300 years this building was used as the office/residence of Oba family, a rich farmer family whose head in many generations had served as a local administrator for a powerful samurai lord who owned the area. You can have a look at this traditional farm house and visit its kitchen with old kitchen stoves.

The area was so quiet and beautiful, with an old Shinto shrine and historical places. It was fun to follow our guide; Yumi took a city tram on tour. Thank you, Yumi san, for a wonderful tour.
