Things to do inTokyo | Japan
Built in 628 , Senso-Ji temple is the oldest and the most important Buddhist temple in Tokyo. The temple is also known for its impressive entrance, the Kaminarimon Gate ("Thunder Gate") with a gigantic 700-kilogram red lantern. The 200-meter walkway between the gate and the temple is Nakamise shopping street. You might end up spending more time sampling local delicacies and buying souvenirs here than visiting the temple itself.
