History
Founded in 1702 CE (Genroku 15) as Myōken Shrine, it originally enshrined Myōken Bosatsu (the Myōken Bodhisattva), the guardian deity of the Chiba clan. In 1872 CE (Meiji 5), the shrine was renamed Meiji Shrine in accordance with the government's order to separate Shinto and Buddhism.

What visitors say
The shrine grounds are well-maintained, with large trees and a serene atmosphere. The main buildings are made of concrete and appear relatively new. A notable feature is the presence of remnants of the historical syncretism of Shinto and Buddhism, such as copper-tiled roofs and Buddhist stone monuments. The approach path is paved with stone slabs, and the surrounding area includes disaster prevention facilities and informational signage.
