The park is really nice. If you love lotus flowers, this is definitely the place to visit.

Kumano-Hayatama Taisha Grand Shrine
Known as a “place of spiritual renewal,” this grand shrine draws a steady stream of worshippers seeking the courage and resolve to take a new step at life’s turning points. Together with Kumano-Hongu Taisha Grand Shrine and Kumano-Nachi Taisha Grand Shrine, it forms the Kumano Sanzan. This ancient shrine is the head shrine of the 5,000 Kumano shrines throughout Japan. It was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2004.
This is one of the three Kumano shrines. Legend says the gods of Kumano descended here to build a new palace, and that's how Shingu City got its name. Among the three, Hayatama Taisha is the easiest to walk around.

Kagurazaka
Kagurazaka, in Shinjuku, Tokyo, first got its start as a bustling geisha district. Visitors here will find a large shopping street that’s home to trendy shops and cafes, but just a few steps from the main drag sits a few cozy, veteran Japanese eateries, chic cobblestone streets and black, wood-latticed fences.
During the day, it's calm and peaceful, but at night, it has a totally different vibe.

Senso-ji Temple
One of Asakusa's leading tourist attractions, Senso-ji Temple welcomes more than 30 million visitors annually. This iconic Tokyo temple hosts many annual events, including New Year's visits and Setsubun. Kaminarimon Gate, a symbol of Asakusa, features a large red lantern flanked by statues of the gods of wind and thunder.
It's not just Sensoji Temple—the whole Asakusa area has that classic downtown vibe. The rickshaw pullers are a highlight, too. They're all super fit and energetic, and many of them are really funny!
