Senso Ji ⛩️
The oldest and most famous temple in Tokyo is the temple of Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva, who embodies the mercy of all Buddhas. The chants of practicing buddhists fills the air, the sounds of coins being tossed in offering and the smells of burning incense made this an immersive experience.
While the spiritual essence of Senso Ji feels very tangible, one step outside and you’re met with hundreds of vendors and thousands of people shopping, eating and taking photos so they can take a little piece of historic Tokyo with them.
