Asakusa Shrine is located in the Asakusa area of Tokyo and is dedicated to the nearby Senso-ji Temple. With a long history and profound cultural significance, this shrine was established in 628 AD, making it one of the oldest shrines in Tokyo. It is known for protecting commercial prosperity and social stability. The architectural style of Asakusa Shrine is elegant and forms a beautiful contrast with the surrounding Senso-ji Temple. The shrine's pathway is lined with cherry blossom trees, attracting numerous visitors during spring for flower viewing. Every year, grand festivals are held here, drawing many devotees and tourists to experience traditional Japanese culture. Asakusa Shrine is conveniently located, just a few minutes' walk from Asakusa Station. For visitors interested in learning about Japanese culture and history, this is a must-visit destination.

This time it was rainy season, so the daily schedule was tight, but the night tour of Sensoji Temple had a unique flavor and was a good place to go. The temple was not closed, and I also drew divination 🙏🏻👍🏻

If anyone goes to Tokyo and likes green tea, I recommend this shop, Kagurachaka Puchi, in the Asakusa area. The tea is very delicious. The shop has 8 levels, but if you go on the first day, the shop won't let you drink that level because they're afraid it'll be too strong. They'll give you a coupon to go and drink it later. But for us who like tea, I'd say that level 8, the universe level, can't hurt us. I want people who like tea to try it. It's really delicious. If I go to Tokyo again, I'll definitely go buy it again!! #TravelJapan #ShareDeliciousFood

Experience traveling around Tokyo by yourself within 1 day before traveling back to Thailand🍓 Started from the hotel near Nihombashi at around 8.30 am. Walked to catch the red A (Asakusa) train to travel to the first destination, 'Asakusa sensoji'. When we went, the cherry blossoms were starting to bloom a little bit. The weather was quite cold. The temperature was only in the single digits. For those who come to Asakusa Shrine, I recommend that green tea lovers do not miss the shop 'Special Matcha Sweet Kaminari Issa Denpoin-dori'. It's so good. It's so awesome. It's so good!!! After visiting Asakusa, we traveled to the second place, 'Meiji Jingu Shire' or 'Meiji Shrine'. This shrine has been around for over 300 years. When we went to the shrine, there was a Japanese wedding ceremony. It was awesome. Meiji Shrine is easily accessible by taking the red A line from Asakusa Station A18 to Daimon Station A9, then changing to the pink E line from Daimon Station E20. Continue to Yoyoki Station E26, then walk a bit further and you will arrive. The path to the shrine here is quite far, like going for exercise. I recommend wearing comfortable walking shoes. The third place is right next to the shrine, which is Harajuku!! Shopaholics must not miss it. It is a must-see. But for us, it is a bit crowded, but there are many interesting shops. Students in this area are the most. For this area, I would like to recommend a restaurant that I still miss when I return to Thailand. I have to say that beef lovers must not miss it. It is ‘Roast Beef Ohno Harajuku’. It is very good, both in taste and price. In Thailand, you can’t eat A5 beef like a volcano for less than 1,000 baht, but here you can. I want you to try it. The line is a bit long, but if you eat it, you will know that it is worth it!!!! Continuing on to the 4th place, we went to Akihabara, which is another place to shop. We intended to look at film cameras, but ended up spending all our money around the GU Muji store and the gachapon arcade. LOL Next, we went to the 5th place, which is the Ginza area, which is the area for the rich in Japan. Brand name shoppers will love this place. There are so many shops!!! A million K's! I'm hungry! Let's go to the last place before going back to our accommodation. When we're hungry, we have to find something to eat. We traveled from Ginza to Shinjuku, which is an area with many nightlife restaurants. It feels like the later it gets, the more people there are. We ended our dinner at a yakiniku restaurant called 'Gyu kaku', which I must say is much more delicious than the ones in Thailand!!! The meat is so tender, I give it a thumbs up!!! In the end, it was a trip that we walked until we were tired, probably 15 kilometers. We ate until we were full because we stopped to eat a lot!!! And went bankrupt with the store 555555 But overall, it was super fun. It's a country that I think I'll definitely come back to in the future. 🩵🤍🌸❄️ *** I'd like to recommend that you buy a 1-day trip train ticket. You can use it on the Tokyo and Toei trains. It's super worth it.***

#celebrateit I enjoyed my visit to the Asakusa Shrine. It was filled with people students, tourists, and local people. It was lively with vendors selling items and food. This is not a single temple. It is a temple complex. The area is also a big shopping district with scores of souvenirs and snack shops lining up the street.

#0yentravelautumn I went to Asakusa Shrine in Asakusa, Tokyo. This shrine is dedicated to two local cultural figures and fishermen who rescued the Kannon Bodhisattva enshrined at Sensoji Temple from the Sumida River and enshrined it in their home. Numerous sacred animals are depicted, and it is a symbol of peace and wishes for people's happiness. The main benefits are safety of the home, prosperity in business, and fulfillment of wishes. The Sanja Festival held in May is famous and very lively. The shrine is very small and has a quiet atmosphere☺️ It is also a power spot, so please go and check it out. ————————————————— 📍Location: 2-3-1 Asakusa, Taito-ku, Tokyo 7 minutes walk from Asakusa Station on the Tokyo Metro Ginza Line 7 minutes walk from Asakusa Station on the Toei Subway Asakusa Line 7 minutes walk from Asakusa Station on the Tobu Line 10 minutes walk from Asakusa Station on the Tsukuba Express #mayu✈️trip🇯🇵

#Tokyo Attractions Located on the east side of Sensoji Temple, Senso-jinja Shrine solemnly enshrines three figures closely related to Sensoji Temple: Tsuchigumo Manakachi, Hida Hamanari, and Hizen Takenari. They were important founders of Sensō-ji, the oldest temple in Tokyo. They devoted their lives to the construction and development of the temple and won the respect of later generations. In 1951, the shrine was designated an important cultural property by the Japanese government, reflecting its profound historical and cultural value. When visiting Sensō-ji Temple, you might as well visit this shrine and experience its unique cultural atmosphere. 📍Address: 2-3-1 Asakusa, Taito-ku, Tokyo 🚇Public transportation: 10 minutes walk from "Asakusa" station 🕒Opening hours: 6:00～17:00 🎫Admission: Free

Asakusa has a beautiful traditional temple called Senso-ji. There are lots of souvenir shops along with many places that you can eat. Entry into this area is free and a fun thing to do in this place is dress in traditional clothing. I think this is a place that should be visited if you’re into traditional style while you’re visiting Tokyo. #citydaytours #historicallandmarks
