Suwa Shrine, also known as Suwajinja or Sugata Shrine in its registered name, is one of the local worship centers for Nippori and Yanaka residents and is considered to be the chief guardian of Nippori-Yanaka area.

Based on the description of the Tokyo Metropolitan Shrine Agency [TMSA], Suwa Shrine is perhaps one of the oldest shrines in Tokyo, although TMSA does not the year the Shrine was built or created.

With falling tree leaves from tall trees, Suwa Shrine looks even stylish and "ancient". Although there was a custodian or handyman who was doing maintenance for the Shrine, there were signs that Suwa Shrine was showing deteriorating in Shrine's building structure. However, its Worship Hall is still quite well maintained, clean and organized.

If you are happen to be around on new year, this is very popular place for Hatsumoude for local people...

The two guardian dogs are very mascular in stature. Pre printed...
