Itsukushima Shrine is famous for its great torii gate standing in the sea. At high tide, it looks as if it’s floating on the water, creating a dreamy and captivating view.
The shrine has a historic charm, and the surrounding natural scenery is beautiful. Walking around, you can feel the rich history, culture, and peaceful atmosphere.

Odaiba Statue of Liberty
The Statue of Liberty in Odaiba, standing against the backdrop of the Rainbow Bridge, symbolizes the friendship between Japan and France. Initially brought to Odaiba from Paris in 1998 as a temporary exhibit, the site continues to draw immense fandom to this day. With official permission from the city of Paris, it was permanently installed in 2000.
Odaiba is a popular waterfront spot in Tokyo, with well-known landmarks like the Statue of Liberty and Rainbow Bridge. It combines shopping, food, entertainment, and ocean views. It’s great for a relaxing stroll during the day, and at night the lights are gorgeous, creating a really romantic atmosphere.

San'en-zan Kodo-in Zojoji Temple
Located at the base of Tokyo Tower is Zojoji, an Omotoyama temple of the Jodo sect of Buddhism. Enshrined in Zojoji's Ankokuden Hall is the hidden black image of Buddha worshipped by Tokugawa Ieyasu, the first shogun of the Edo period. Since he won one battle after after another, visiting this temple is said to increase the chance of victory.
Zojoji Temple is a historic temple with a solemn, dignified atmosphere. The temple and Tokyo Tower complement each other beautifully, creating a unique view. The grounds are quiet and peaceful, full of culture and history. It’s a worthwhile place to visit and pay respects in central Tokyo.
