How Many Shrines in Chūō-ku, Tōkyō?

Sacred Tokyo 40 Shinto Shrines
Anchor 1
Anchor 2

The Association of Shinto Shrines’ webpage (Japanese) shows 42 shrines registered with it in Chuo-ku, but stripping out duplictate entries (the same address written different ways) brings the number down to 36. Including in-ground subordinate shrines and shrines not registered with the Association I have come up with 67. They are listed in the following table. For reasons of readability I have omitted Tokyo-to, Chuo-ku, 東京都, and 中央区. For the same reason rather than repeat the address of the main shrine for each of the subordinate shrines I have used ditto marks.
