About Toho Shrine
Toho Shrine is famous for the fact that airplanes fly past right in front of it, but its accessibility is poor and can only be reached by car.
In the past, due to the complicated history of Narita Airport, it was considered a spot where 100% of people would be interrogated, but now it has become a popular spot for taking powerful photos of airplanes.
How to get there
The roads around the shrine are relatively wide and well maintained, and the news of the opposition, which at one time was militant, is not heard these days, making it seem like a distant memory, but the movement against the airport, which began in 1966, has not been resolved even today. The perimeter is surrounded by a double fence and looks very materialistic.
It is located at the southern end of Runway B at Narita Airport. The location is such that you could say it is on the runway.
If you take Prefectural Route 44 from the direction of Narita Airport, you will pass through a tunnel that goes under Runway B and the taxiway.
As soon as you exit the tunnel, there is an intersection with a Lawson, so turn right.
After passing through a short tunnel under the taxiway, you will come to this location.
