Stepping into Yahiko Shrine felt like entering sacred ground.
As soon as I started down the approach, crisp, chilly air greeted me. Towering trees line the path, and it’s quiet yet solemn.
The moment I passed through the Zuishinmon gate, the worship hall lined up with the outline of Mt. Yahiko behind it, and the whole atmosphere felt especially holy.

If you're visiting Tokyo, I highly recommend staying in Asakusa. You can appreciate a different side of Sensoji Temple there.
In the early morning, before the tourists arrive, you can visit and pray at a relaxed pace. At night, after the crowds have gone, it's completely different from the daytime bustle. Sensoji Temple has a quiet, wabi-sabi kind of beauty in the evening. -

This place is great for browsing, especially with the restaurant in B1. It’s different from the Cafe&Meal locations we have in Taiwan.
At the MUJI diner in Ginza, dinner is served as a set meal, with dishes that are both healthy and delicious. Next time you’re in Ginza, definitely consider stopping by MUJI diner for dinner! -

When you visit Shibamata, besides strolling the old street, you should definitely stop by Shibamata Taishakuten too.
Passing through the Nitenmon Gate feels like stepping back in time. One of the reasons I love visiting temples in Japan is for these quiet, peaceful moments. Whether you join in the traditional prayer rituals or simply take in the atmosphere, it’s all wonderful. -
