Whatever the religion or whoever they're dedicated to, shrines have a way of making you reflect. Visit Minato Inari Shrine and share a quiet moment with the locals.
When it comes to things to do and see in Chuo Ward, Minato Inari Shrine is rated by fellow travelers. And in good news for your budget, admission is free. Niigata City Performing Arts Center, Marinepia Nihonkai and Niigata Prefectural Civic Centre are also worthy of a visit and are not far from the sacred place.
