Senso-ji Main Hall
I introduce the history and the famous place of the Asakusa area. Asakusa was developed as a temple town in Senso-ji (628-year construction). Nakamise St. is an approach from Kaminari-mon to Senso-ji, and a little more than 90 stores are located in a line with about 250 meters, and, even now It is active. In Senso-ji Temple, Hozomon Gate, Nitenmon Gate of the important cultural property of a country, Five-story pagoda about 50 meters high, etc. stand around Main Hall.
