travelers stories about Temple in Sensoji, Japan

Temple in Sensoji, Japan

Whilst in Tokyo, I visited the Buddhist Temple of Sensō-ji. This photo was capture during the busy midday rush of tourists and locals exploring the markets just outside the temple grounds. Stepping inside, the noise subsided allowing peace and quietness to fill the room. It’s a reminder of how even in one of the busiest cities in the world you can always find a moment of peace and respect.

this temple design is really unique. it doesn’t looks normal temple architectural style. most of all temple in japan was built of wood.but this temple is ferro concrete structure. The design of the stone exterior was based on an ancient Indian style and combines Buddhist, Hindu and Islamic architectural styles in a complex manner. The columns and wide stairs of the Temple moreover are reminiscent of Greek and Roman architectural styles.
