Our itinerary is below.
Tsukiji Honganji Temple
This Buddha temple dates back to the 12th century, but this temple was founded in 1617.
Originally located a little further north, it was burned down and moved to this location.
This is a reclaimed land, and the name Tsukiji literally means “Built land.”
The current temple building was constructed in 1934.
The golden structure inside represents the paradise of Amida Nyorai Buddha.
Namiyoke Shrine
Tsukiji used to be a beach, and when the Tsukiji Honganji Temple was relocated here 17th century after a fire at its former location, reclamation work was undertaken.
The construction work was difficult due to high waves, and many people were killed.
One day, a shining deity was found drifting on the waves, and when it was enshrined here, the waves subsided and the construction work proceeded without incident.
This is why the shrine was named Namiyoke ( calm down the waves) Shrine.
The shrine has two huge lion heads, and during the festival in June, these two lion heads are paraded around on a portable shrine.
Tsukiji Outer Market
This is the kitchen of Tokyo.
The auction area and fish stores inside have been relocated to the new Toyosu Market.
But the Tsukiji Outer Market, where we usually eat and shop, remains intact, and a new shopping area has been built to maintain its charm.
Lunch
We ate lunch in the market!
Yummy!
Asakusa , Sensoji Temple
The oldest temple in Tokyo, founded in 628.
From the Nakamise shopping street to the rickshaw tour guides, this whole area is like a theme park of old Tokyo.
Tokyo Skytree
Tokyo Skytree is 634m the tallest independent tower in the world.
It’s using for telecommunications.
