This is a classic spot in Asakusa you just can't miss. Their special sauce goes perfectly with the rice, and a sip of the hot tea they serve really helps cut the oiliness.

Kai Zenkoji Temple
A renowned temple founded in Eiroku 1 (1558) by Takeda Shingen, a Sengoku-era warlord of Kai (present-day Yamanashi Prefecture). Fearing that Zenkoji Temple in Nagano might be destroyed by fire during the Battles of Kawanakajima, Takeda Shingen moved the principal image of Amida Nyorai and other Buddhist treasures to Kofu, which marked the beginning of the temple. Even after the fall of the Takeda clan, the temple continued to receive generous protection from Tokugawa Ieyasu and others.
The temple architecture has a wonderfully old-school feel. The main gate and the main hall have been rebuilt, but they’re still in great shape, and you can really sense the history here.

Kameari Park
Kameari Park is located near the north exit of JR Kameari Station (head straight out, then turn right and you’re there). It’s famous as the park of the same name that acts as a setting in the manga “Kochira Katsushika-ku Kameari Koen-mae Hashutujo.”
Wow! I really want to visit this place. Thanks for the recommendation. It's definitely on my travel list for next time☺️

Meiji Jingu Shrine
Meiji Shrine was established in 1920 (Taisho 9) as a shrine to enshrine Emperor Meiji and Empress Shoken.
If you're in Tokyo, Meiji Jingu Shrine is definitely worth a visit!
The huge torii gate inside is the largest wooden Myojin torii in Japan⛩️. It's 12 meters tall, 17.1 meters wide, with a diameter of 1.2 meters, and weighs 13 tons. It's made from cypress wood from Alishan in Taiwan.
