Tokyo's unique treasure: Sensoji Temple

Hello everyone! Today I would like to introduce you to a great spot in Tokyo – Asakusa Temple, one of the oldest and most famous temples in Tokyo. It is one of the representatives of Japanese culture and religion and attracts countless tourists every year. Sensoji Temple was built in 628 AD, and it is said that a gold chest containing a statue of Guanyin Bodhisattva was discovered on Mount Asakusa. The current Sensoji Temple was rebuilt after World War II and still retains its antiquity. Through its years of history, Sensoji Temple has become a symbol of Japanese culture and faith, attracting large numbers of tourists and devotees to visit and make pilgrimages every year. The main gate of Sensoji Temple is Kaminarimon, which still has a bridge, where two huge red doorposts and a suspended Rementi lamp can be seen. After walking through Remon, you will step into a small street called Nakamise Street, which is filled with all kinds of stalls with souvenirs, jewelry, Japanese food and more. Walk through Zhongmisei Street and you will see the main hall of Sensoji Temple. The current main hall was rebuilt in 1958 and houses Guanyin Bodhisattva and other Buddha statues. You can go in and worship and learn about Japanese religious culture. In addition to the main hall, there is a five-story pagoda inside Sensoji Temple – the Gojunoto. The pagoda is one of the symbols of Sensoji Temple and is also a popular spot for selfies. Around Sensoji Temple, you can also take a boat tour of the Asakusa River and visit Asakusa Park. Of course, there is no shortage of traditional snacks from Japan! I hope you have the opportunity to visit Sensoji Temple to experience its unique charm and traditional Japanese culture. #Tokyo Attractions #Sakusaji Temple #Japanese Religion #Japanese Culture #Sightseeing Holy Land
