Sensoji is a Buddhist temple popularly known as Asakusa Kannon Temple, situated in Asakusa. Sensoji was built close to the goddess of Kannon. This temple was opened in 645 AD, the oldest temples in Tokyo,Japan.

Fascinating Story

The history of this sensoji buddisht temple is fascinating. Many years ago, there was two fishermen on the Miyato River. Now it is the Sumida River; they trapped a statue of Kannon, the merciful nirvana doer in their net. They tried many times to return the statue in the river. But it came back to them again and again. The pioneer of the locale called attention to its Kannon; so it was revered. Even though the Sensoji Temple established at 628 AD, the current structure is was rebuilt after the obliteration in World War 2.
