2. This temple is famous for housing a Buddhist statue of Kannon, Goddess of Mercy, with eleven faces and a thousand arms. Each of the eleven faces represents a different phase in the search for enlightenment. The 9.18 meter tall, gilded wooden statue is regarded as one of the largest wooden sculpture in Japan.　You can also enjoy the pretty garden with ponds and the Jizo-do Hall with hundreds of small statues of the Jizo Bodhisattva who helps the souls of dead children to reach the paradise.

About Tokio

Barrios de neón, santuarios tranquilos, comida excelente y distritos singulares: Tokio es una metrópolis inmensa y ordenada, de trenes puntuales.

Cada distrito parece una ciudad propia. El famoso cruce de Shibuya y las torres, los bares y los callejones de Golden Gai en Shinjuku vibran de energía, mientras que Harajuku mezcla la moda juvenil con la calma boscosa del santuario Meiji Jingu. En Asakusa, el templo Sensō-ji y su calle comercial mantienen vivo un Tokio más antiguo, y Ginza ofrece elegantes grandes almacenes y galerías.

Top-ranked sights in Tokio: Senso-ji Temple (Asakusa Temple), Tokyo Imperial Palace, Meiji Shrine (Meiji Jingu).
