Nezu Shrine
I send every visiting family here instead of Fushimi Inari in Kyoto. It's ten minutes from Yanaka, it's free, and at 8am you'll have the torii path almost entirely to yourself.
Tunnel of vermilion torii gates, far fewer tourists than Fushimi Inari, and genuinely old shrine architecture. This is the correct Tokyo torii-tunnel experience.
