The Suga Shrine Steps have become one of the most famous places for “Your Name” fans to flock to and recreate one of the most iconic scenes from the movie, so of course we had to make it the first place on our list! In the film, the two main characters (Taki and Mitsuha) finally meet in real life on these steps at the end of the film. The scene is extremely heart warming and was loved by many all around the world. This has resulted in people traveling from all over to see these steps and recreate this amazing scene from the film.

The steps are located close to Yotsuya station and they lead up to a shrine called “Suga Shrine”, hence why they are called the “Suga Shrine Steps”. The shrine itself is also very lovely and is significantly less busy than other shrines in Tokyo, so it’s a great place to go to relax and take some amazing pictures. If you’re in Tokyo and you love “Your Name”, you HAVE to visit these steps!

Had to come here since ‘Your Name’ is my favourite movie of all time. The place itself is located in such a beautiful and peaceful neighbourhood and isn’t hard to access. There were only a few people taking photos of the stairs and in the shrine when we went on a weekday which made the whole visit a lot better! We ended up buying some charms for ourselves and the family and even carried out the rituals of cleansing and praying within the shrine! Highly recommend coming here if you’re a fan of the movie and if you want a break from the hustle...
