Zōjō-Ji Temple

Unclaimed

Zojo ji Temple has a calm presence and a strong sense of history but the construction takes away some of the magic. You can feel the beauty trying to shine through but it is a bit harder to fully sink into the atmosphere right now. Still worth a visit just not the full experience.

Zojoji Temple in Tokyo is a peaceful and beautiful spot, offering a nice contrast to the hustle and bustle of the city. The temple grounds are quite large and provide a serene atmosphere. The view of Tokyo Tower in the background is a nice touch, making it a great spot for photos. It's not as crowded as other temples, which makes for a more relaxed visit. If you're in the area, it’s definitely worth a stop, but I wouldn’t go out of my way just for this temple.

Visited on 13 Apr. A very serene temple and you can take photo together with tokyo tower at the back. We can even see cherry blossom. Look like the main entrance is under renovation. Unfortunately we visited on a rainy day and need an umbrella to take photo

Not being rude, but as compared to the Sensō - Ji Shrine which is more famous, this place feels so calm and at peace. I had it on my plan to go here but it was always a yes or no but something from within kept telling me that you need to go and I finally went and it was really worth it. Unlike other shrines, this place is really quiet, you feel your self as one with the divinity, and you get some awesome pics of the Tokyo Tower. I highly recommend to go this shrine if you are coming to Tokyo. ??

An iconic temple in central of Tokyo. The main gate is under construction so you should get in from other sub gates. Should visit during week days to enjoy the calmness and tranquility, if you are lucky, you will be able to observe a ceremony. Free of charge. Rest room is under the main building.
