Things to do in Tokyo🇯🇵Wear a lace kimono and go shopping at Sensō-ji Temple! Very atmospheric

⭐️Must-do things to do at Sensoji Temple: 1️⃣ Experience Kimono👘 Lace kimono is a relatively new type and has become very popular among Japanese girls in recent years! I made an appointment at Sensō-ji Village Tokyo. While changing clothes, I saw many Japanese people also changing clothes. To make a reservation, go to the store website at village_tokyo. You can fill in your name in English, but the pinyin needs to be translated into Japanese. Then check the reservation code when you arrive at the store. I chose the most popular combination of 8800 + 250 socks + 550 kimono insurance. The socks are split-toe socks that can be bought in the store. In fact, you can also wear your own boots if you forget to bring white short boots. Kimono insurance varies from person to person, but I still added it because mine is light in color. Please note that the store only accepts cash and you need to be on time. If you are one minute late, you will be charged more. 2️⃣Eat street food 🍡 When you come to the Kaminarimon area of ​​Sensō-ji Temple, you can’t miss trying the street food. Tried the takoyaki right away, the shrimps were super big! I also had oden, and my favorite part was the daikon radish, it was very flavorful! 3️⃣ Make a wish/draw lots🙌🏻 It is one of the oldest temples in Tokyo. It is not a shrine but a Buddhist temple. Bow once before entering the mountain gate, wash your hands and mouth at the water pavilion, throw coins, put your hands together and pray for a small fortune, and bow to the main hall when leaving the mountain gate. After the worship, you can ask for a fortune in the fortune box here, put in 100 yen to ask for a fortune, pour out a fortune from the fortune box, and then take the fortune according to the number on the fortune. If you draw a good fortune, you must take the fortune paper back (also bring back good luck), and then bring it back for cremation one year later. If you draw a bad fortune, you must tie the fortune paper to the designated rack in the temple. The monks in the temple will help chant sutras to ward off disasters, and then you can go to the temple to buy amulets. 🚄Transportation The nearest stations to Senso-ji Temple are Asakusa Station on the Tokyo Metro Ginza Line, Toei Asakusa Line, Tobu Skytree Line, and Tsukuba Express Line.
