This Shinto shrine celebrated its 150th anniversary in 2019. Linked to the national construction of the 19th century, it is dedicated to the spirits of Japanese who died for their homeland, from the Boshin War to the present day. It is currently a controversial site, as it houses the remains of war criminals (notably that of General Tōjō, who orchestrated numerous massacres, including the infamous Nanking Massacre in 1937). Every time the Japanese Prime Minister visits this holy site, a wave of protests is unleashed from Beijing and Seoul.
