Zojoji Temple

#tokyospots


Zojoji Temple, located near Tokyo Tower, is a fascinating blend of old and new. The temple’s traditional wooden gate stands in stark contrast to the towering modern structure behind it, offering one of the city’s most iconic views. As the main temple of the Jodo sect in the Kanto region, it holds deep spiritual significance. The grounds are peaceful, featuring statues, cherry blossoms in spring, and even mausoleums of past shoguns. It’s a serene, photogenic, and historical site worth visiting.
