If you pray at the main hall, go down left stairs . There is a small stream which making tranquil sound and stone bridge. You can see a lot of colorful KOI fish under the bridge.
If you go down right stairs, there is a ASAKUSA shrine. This shrine dedicated to the 3 founders of this shrine and SENSOJI temple.
These 3 people are the deities of SANJA ( 3 guys) festival , which is one of the biggest festivals in Tokyo of middle of May .
