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.

3. This shrine was originally built in 1063 and dedicated to the Emperor Ojin (God of War) and the Shogun Minamoto no Yoritomo among others. An interesting fact of this shrine is that it was not only a Shinto "Hachimangu" shrine, but also a Tendai Buddhist temple for most of its history.

About Tokyo

Neonbelysta stadsdelar, tysta helgedomar, fantastisk mat och distinkta kvarter utgör Tokyo, en enorm, ordnad metropol sammanlänkad av punktliga tåg.

Varje stadsdel känns som en egen stad. Shibuyas berömda övergångsställe och Shinjukus torn, barer och gränder i Golden Gai pulserar av energi, medan Harajuku blandar ungdomsmode med skogsklädd ro vid Meiji Jingu-helgedomen. I Asakusa håller templet Sensō-ji och dess marknadsgata ett äldre Tokyo vid liv, och Ginza erbjuder eleganta varuhus och gallerier.

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