Tips from locals
One of the oldest Buddhist temples in Tokyo known for its finest Japanese architecture. The temple is dedicated to the Buddhist Goddess of mercy and compassion.
On the right side of Sensoji temple main-hall, there is Asakusa shrine. It is interesting to know that, Buddhist Sensoji and Shintoism Shrine is staying together here. It is much smaller than temple, though, seeing its old architecture of more than 350 years old, and much more quiet and peaceful atmosphere are enough worth visiting. Sometimes on weekends, you can see a monkey show there, too! My recommend is to buy a cute amulets at the shrine office!
