One of the must-visit temples in Tokyo! You definitely have to snap a photo in front of the Kaminarimon lantern. Nakamise Street is super fun to walk around and shop, especially for classic Edo snacks like grilled senbei 🍘.

Banna-ji Temple
Banna-ji Temple is considered to have originated in 1196 CE, when it was constructed at the residence of Ashikaga Yoshikane as a personal Buddhist temple with the Vairocana Buddha enshrined. Yoshikane's child, Ashikaga Yoshiuji, would later add temple buildings and make it the family temple of the Ashikaga clan. Seven generations after Yoshikane, Ashikaga Takauji would go on to found the Muromachi Shogunate.
Banna-ji Temple has over 800 years of history. The main deity is the Vairocana Buddha. It was originally the Ashikaga family's residence and is now designated as a national historic site.
