“Japanese modern style temple!”
Tsukiji Honganji Temple is a Buddhist temple following Jodo Shinshu sect. It is about 3 minutes walk from the Tsukiji outer market. This temple is very famous as it doesn’t look like a typical Japanese temple. The decorations are gorgeous with gold powder and it even has a pipe organ. The current temple opened in 1934 was designed by Chuta Ito, a Japanese architect who travelled around Asian countries.
