Suga Shrine (Japanese: 須賀神社, Hepburn: Suga jinja) is a Shinto shrine in the Shinjuku ward of Tokyo, Japan. It enshrines two kami – Inari Ōkami and Susanoo-no-Mikoto – and is the guardian shrine of 18 towns in Yotsuya. It was moved to its current location in the early 17th century and took on its current name in 1868. The shrine was severely damaged in the 1945 bombing of Tokyo and was not fully restored until 1989. A staircase on the premises of the shrine is a popular destination for fans of the 2016 film Your Name, the closing scene of which takes place there.
