Naritasan Shinshoji Temple, one of the most famous temples in the Kanto region

The vast and remote Naritasan Shinshoji Temple dates back to 940 AD. Shinshoji Temple is a famous ancient temple in Japan and is the site of many Buddhist ceremonies. The temple's buildings, statues and ritual vessels are hundreds of years old. Shinshoji Temple is dedicated to the god of fire, Fudo Myo-o, and is an important temple of the Shingon sect of Japan. The most attractive attraction for tourists to Shinshoji Temple is the daily "Goma Burning" ceremony, which has been passed down for more than a thousand years. During the fire burning ceremony, the monks in the temple chant in front of a ball of flames to drive away bad luck from the worshippers. You can reach this place through the winding Narita Omotesando shopping street. Before heading to the temple, you can stroll along this shopping street, where there are stalls selling various snacks and souvenirs, and many restaurants serve freshly grilled eels to meet your dining needs. #japan#naritasan #temple #famousspot #tourism #Shinsho-ji #buddhisttemple
