Across the tracks from the heart of Harajuku is a gigantic and important Shinto shrine known as Meiji Jingu. There were crowds of people there, and a wedding happened to be taking place as I walked into the main shrine complex with what looked like another one queuing up as I left. I had read about shrine etiquette but forgot most of it since I only happened to notice on the map that it was right at Harajuku so I tried to stay out of the way. You approach the shrine via a long walk through woods and streams. It was easily the most nature I've seen in Tokyo so far.
I've seen a few tour guides leading foreigners around and the lady at this one seemed to be carrying something like a swiffer duster to help the tourists follow her...
