Nezu Shrine was established in 1705, and is famous for its azalea festival which has a gorgeous and bountiful garden full of 3000 azalea plants including 100 different varieties. You can walk around the grounds of the shrine for free, where you can explore the Torii (red arch) walkway, the Rōmon(楼門, tower gate), and the Honden(本殿, main hall). The garden only costs 200 JPY to enter, and you will need to buy a ticket at the ticket gate. Usually during this festival there will be stalls selling typical Japanese festival food, and live performances. (At the time of writing this it is during the pandemic so they did not have them.)
