Sensoji Temple Tokyo

Last Sunday on Feburary 23, 2014, me and Yannick, a good friend and fellow lab-mate of mine went to Tokyo by Odakyu-line and subway.  It takes about 80 minutes of train ride to get there.   First we visited the Sensoji temple in Tokyo.  The temple has one main gate and after we walk past the main gate, we entered a small shop district full of many different kinds of shops that sells the following but not limited to:  Japanese doll, umbrella, kimono, Traditional Japanese men dress, masks, and sandals.   At the end of the shops is the main temple.  The temple is also surrounded by other kinds of decorations like the towers, waterfall, and miniature Japanese gardens.
