[Asakusa Komagata Suwa Shrine/Tokyo] Feel the history in the old-fashioned lion statues

Asakusa Komagata Suwa Shrine in Taito Ward, Tokyo 𓂃◌𓈒𓐍 𓂃◌𓈒𓐍𓂃◌𓈒𓐍𓂃 This shrine is said to have been founded during the reign of Emperor Go-Reizei (1045-1068) or after the Jōkyū War (1221). It is said that the name of the area around here, Suwa-machi, was derived from this shrine during the Edo period. It was quite crowded, sandwiched between buildings🏙💦, but the lion-dog statues on both sides of the shrine had a traditional feel to them😆 On the right is Bandai's headquarters building🏢 There are various characters, including Anpanman🎶 It's a very interesting area. 🙌 ✼••┈┈┈┈••✼••┈┈┈┈••✼••┈┈┈┈••✼ ꕥShrine name: Asakusa Komagata Suwa Shrine ꕥAddress: 1-4-15 Komagata, Taito-ku, Tokyo ꕥAccess: 🚉 Kuramae Station → 5 minutes walk ✼••┈┈┈┈••✼••┈┈┈┈••✼••┈┈┈┈••✼ #0 yen trip #Shrine tour
