After viewing the Emperor and his home, we decided to walk to Yasukuni Shrine located near the palace. This Shrine is quite famous because it is where some of the World War Two War Criminals are inshrined, thus making it a huge news topic in Asia. This last year Prime Minister Abe visited this particular shrine to pay respect to his dead relatives. But by doing so.. He also prayed for the inshrined war criminals.
Lets just say it didn't go well with Japan`s neighbours.
Once we got to the Shrine we got something to eat and people watched. It is quite evident that many of the people who come here for prayer are either Japanese Mafia or Japanese extremists.
At around two in the afternoon we decided to head back home.
