Destinations

Senso-ji Temple

Sensoji is the oldest and most impressive temple in Tokyo. The main hall was first built in 645 to house a tiny golden statue of Kannon, the goddess of mercy, that had been repeatedly hauled up in fishing nets despite being thrown back into the river. The statue was enshrined in the main hall where it ostensibly remains today -- a sight too holy to be seen. The temple was destroyed in the air raids of March 10, 1945, and the present building is a 1958 reconstruction. The temple precincts bustle with people praying, buying fortunes, shopping or sightseeing. Many come for the curative powers of smoke billowing from the bronze urn burning incense in front of the main hall. People rub smoke on joints in the hope of easing aches and pains.

Nakamise

Nakamise, a 250-meter approach to Sensoji Temple, is one of the oldest shopping streets in Japan. The arcade dates from the late 17th century, when local people were granted the special right to open shops along the approach to the temple. Their shops sold toys, sweets, snacks, and souvenirs. The shopping street was destroyed in the Great Kanto Earthquake of 1923 and also in the air raids of 1945. Today's shops sell traditional knick-knacks, rice crackers, and festival foods. The street bustles and in color and motion suggests Old Edo.
