Tokyo, Japan - Come to Gotokuji Temple and bring a lucky cat home!

Besides cats, there are still cats. The #Gotoku-ji Temple, which is filled with white lucky cats, should be a tourist attraction that has been hyped up by internet celebrities. Not only Asians love to come here, but a lot of foreigners also come here specifically to see the spectacular army of cats, which is said to be more than 1,000.

Gotokuji Temple is said to be the birthplace of the #Maneki-neko. The temple also has a special Maneki-neko-den, which houses the Maneki-neko-kannon and a group of Maneki-neko. If you want to make a wish come true, you can take a lucky cat home first and return it when your wish comes true. Isn’t this just going to Zinan Temple to pray for wealth and fortune?

When a cat raises its right hand, it invites good fortune; when it raises its left hand, it invites wealth. There is a difference between the two. So what we come to Haode Temple to pray for is actually a lucky cat. The business is very good. Registration for purchase is open early in the morning and ends at 12 noon.

Gotokuji Temple is not far from Shimokitazawa and Sangenjaya. You can take a two-stage tram to get there. You will also have the opportunity to see the conductors on the tram and take pictures of the tram crossing the level crossing.
