It was raining when I visited, so I wasn’t able to see the sunrise torii view. I’ll have to save that for next time!
Before leaving, I stopped by Oarai Isosaki Shrine to pray. Maybe because it was a rainy weekday morning, there weren’t many visitors, so I was able to enjoy the peaceful atmosphere. Besides wishing for a smooth trip, it also planted the seed in my heart to come back to Oarai again someday.

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. -
