Senso-Ji (Asakusa Kannon) Temple and Hozomon Gate at night 2020
Even though I arrived late into Tokyo, I still wanted to see something. Typically many places in Japan have beautiful night displays and I couldn’t pass the chance of going to Senso-Ji Temple. Going at night is less crowds, but also less access (depending on the area).
I check in the hostel I am staying at and even though it was late, I decided to check out Hozomon Gate and Senso-Ji temple right off Asakusa station.
After getting off at Asakusa station, the exit had some pretty cool stuff!
As I started walking towards the Temple area and it was gorgeous! It’s actually pretty calm at night. I was taking pictures of the structures, signs, figures, art, and building designs as many looked old world vs modern.
The Temple area was surreal. I loved it. It was actually a chill evening.
The history of this temple is for the Goddess of Mercy.
