As I wander the streets of Tokyo I am always surprised at the number of temples and shrines that are tucked in between houses, highrises and parking lots. They are everywhere. I spotted this one on my walk back home from a friend”s apartment. (I regret not taking a photo of her 27th floor view of Tokyo. It was quite incredible.)
The temples are so amazing b/c like you said, all of a sudden you will see one with tall buildings built around it. I love discovering them in any and all of the towns I get to visit.
I love that you have blogged so much and now carry a camera around with you. Smart idea!
