Unfortunately, the "Classic Japanese Culture" tourism plan put in place under Koizumi is considered a massive flop. Tourism actually FELL once they started emphasizing traditional arts and culture...
As sad as it is, what people seem to want to see these days is Akihabara and Harajuku - not some shrine.
