Buddhist Temple Kawasaki

This is a surprisingly large temple complex based around important historical figures of Buddhism in Japan. You can see several impressive historical buildings here, and you can read about them on pamphlets from the information centre, which are also available in English. There are also fortune slips and a place for burning the traditional bundles of incense sticks, which can be bought at a nearby stand. There were also some miscellaneous souvenirs available. If you want some traditional Japanese sweet, the shopping street that leads toward the main gate of the temple should satisfy your needs in this regard. The temple entrance is free, and the fortune slips and incense sticks both cost 100 yen, which is as cheap as these things get, so I am impressed by this aspect as well. Overall, I would absolutely recommend visiting this cultural gem for its magnificent architecture. It is also quite easy to reach from the centre of Tokyo, so it would be an easily available tourist attraction even for foreigners.
