Yasukuni Shrine: Japan's war memorial that honours 2.4 million but divides nations

Yasukuni Shrine in Tokyo honours more than 2.4 million people who died serving Japan, but remains one of the country's most divisive memorial sites. Its controversial status stems in part from the enshrinement of convicted World War II war criminals. Visits by Japanese politicians to the shrine regularly provoke diplomatic protests from China and South Korea.
