Meiji Shrine (明治神宮)

The shrine is dedicated to the deified spirits of Emperor Meiji and his wife, Empress Shōken. After the emperor's death in 1912, the Japanese Diet passed a resolution to commemorate his role in the Meiji Restoration. An iris garden in an area of Tokyo where Emperor Meiji and Empress Shōken had been known to visit was chosen as the building's location. Construction began in 1915 under Itō Chūta, and the shrine was built in the traditional nagare-zukuri style, using primarily Japanese cypress and copper. It was formally dedicated on November 3, 1920, completed in 1921, and its grounds officially finished by 1926. - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meiji_Shrine
