Standing gracefully at the foot of Tokyo Tower, Zojo-ji Temple is a remarkable blend of history, spirituality, and striking contrasts. Founded in the late 14th century, it served as the family temple of the Tokugawa shoguns, making it one of the most important sites of the Edo period.
The temple grounds feature the majestic main hall (Daiden), serene gardens, and rows of Jizo statues dressed in colorful hats and pinwheels, symbolizing protection for children. Visitors can explore the Tokugawa family mausoleum, participate in rituals, or simply enjoy the tranquil atmosphere while marveling at the juxtaposition of ancient tradition against the backdrop of modern Tokyo Tower.
Whether you come for history, photography, or a moment of reflection, Zojo-ji Temple offers a unique glimpse into Tokyo’s timeless spirit. 🌸✨
