Yasukuni is a Shinto shrine in Tokyo dedicated to the souls of Japanese soldiors killed in war. It is somewhat controversial due to the enshrinement of war criminals.
Despite this, there is a beautiful and peaceful Japanese garden within the grounds of Yasukuni Shrine. The official name of the garden is Shinchi Teien, and is a Meiji era stroll garden with waterfall. Admission is free, so it certainly worth a visit if your are in the area and a fan of Japanese gardens.
