Sensoji Temple in Taito Ward, Tokyo 𓂃◌𓈒𓐍 𓂃◌𓈒𓐍𓂃◌𓈒𓐍𓂃 This year, the Year of the Dragon (Katatsu)🐲, makes Sensoji Temple the perfect place🏮✨ It's said that when a statue of the Bodhisattva Kannon was enshrined in the hall, a golden-scaled dragon descended from the heavens and circled the hall for three days and three nights, protecting the statue. This is the origin of the temple's mountain name, "Kinryuzan" (Mount Kinryu).🐉✨ The origins of this statue date back to two fisherman brothers who found a Buddhist statue caught in a net. With over 30 million visitors annually, this popular tourist spot is especially popular with foreign visitors. 🏮 Just past the Kaminarimon Gate, Nakamise Street is a bustling street where you can enjoy a variety of food while walking around. 🙌 👉 Sensoji Temple Points 🏮 Paper lantern hanging at the Kaminarimon Gate Height: 3.9m, width: 3.3m, weight: approximately 700kg 🏮 Paper lantern in the main hall Height: Height: 4.5m, width: 3.5m, weight: approximately 600kg ✼••┈┈┈┈••✼••┈┈┈┈••✼••┈┈┈┈••✼ ꕥTemple Name: Sensoji Temple ꕥAddress: 2-3-1 Asakusa, Taito-ku, Tokyo ꕥAccess 🚉 Approximately 2-minute walk from Asakusa Station ✼••┈┈┈┈••✼••┈┈┈┈••✼••┈┈┈┈••✼ #TokyoSightseeing #TokyoTrip #Temples & Shrines #Sensoji Temple #Kaminarimon
