PRESERVE Selected

Tokyo's great urban shrine — a cedar-lined approach through a hundred-year-old forest that swallows the city whole. Walk it at 7am before a round and you'll have the gravel paths, sake barrels and towering torii nearly to yourself.

Locals use the inner garden as a reset button; the north approach from Yoyogi stays quiet even on weekends.
