What travelers are saying
- MomRoccoChicago, IL538 contributionsThis sight is just breathtaking. The water surrounding it makes for some great photo opportunities, but it is so crowded that you'll definitely have to wait to get that beautiful photo. The trip to get to this location from our hotel in Osaka took a very long time due to an accident. It was still worth the delay and I'd certainly recommend it.Written May 30, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- AChee74Kuching, Malaysia1,277 contributionsOne of the places that you need to visit and go. The walk to the temple itself is full of people and lots of shops.
The views there are amazing.Written June 4, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

We were fortunate to visit during the cherry blossom season, when the garden was frequented by locals enjoying the blossoms and spring climate. Especially in the Japanese Garden area, people picnic on blankets laid on the grass amidst the trees,. Young and old frolicked among the stone lanterns, trees, ponds, Taiwan Pavilion and other garden areas, while birds flew and chirped. Wonderful place. Tickets are required before entry.Written June 4, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- SunshineandSandDollarsSt. Petersburg, FL203 contributionsIt is the most widely visited religious site in the world, with over 30 million visitors annually. And guess what? It was BUSY! We decided to check out the shops along the Nakamise-dōri, and even though it was one of the busiest places we walked through, most people were so polite, and it didn’t bother us.
Once we approached the temple, there were o-mikuji stalls. For a suggested donation of 100 yen (65 cents), visitors can consult the oracle and divine answers to their questions. Guests shake labeled sticks from enclosed metal containers and read the corresponding answers they retrieve from one of 100 possible drawers. Omikuji are always fun to get when visiting a temple; for those who cannot read Japanese, the staff or Google Lens can help by telling you if you received a good (大吉) or bad (大凶) fortune.
If it’s good, you keep it. If not, you can tie the fortune to a tree branch near or outside the reception area and leave your bad luck behind.
Overall, this temple was incredibly crowded, so we enjoyed walking the streets around it but didn't stay on the grounds for long. From here, we did find some nice views of Tokyo Skytree.Written June 3, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

The sheer size of the wooden structure is very impressive as is the large Buddha housed inside.
It was very busy with tourists and school trips but was worth the entrance fee to see inside.Written June 2, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

This large complex is free and filled with many trees.Written June 4, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- DipuKVPune, India3,042 contributionsMaintained in its original shape to remind the world of the horrors of war, the Atomic Bomb Dome at Hiroshima, is physically well-maintained and located in nice environs but conceptually creates poignant feelings in oneself.Written May 21, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- MichaelLindaGHighbridge, UK405 contributionsWent there and was a little concerned if there would be enough to do, but ended up running out of time. The deer are charming but they can get a little nippy if you have food, so keep an eye on them if your child has an ice cream or snack. There are plenty of shops and food outlets. The Tori gate is impressive, better for photo's when the tide is in. Well worth a visit.Written June 4, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- AChee74Kuching, Malaysia1,277 contributionsThe main highlight is to feed the deers, but they can be very aggressive when you ran out of food! They will chase after you so do be careful

- Howard J2 contributionsThis was our first time in Tokyo and Asakusa! We've got to see traditional craft shops and street-food stalls along Nakamise Street near the ancient Sensō-ji temple. Was amazing! Asakusa is one of our favorite place.Written May 24, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.

- OZS_ATWBudapest, Hungary3,529 contributionsWe came here from Yaedake Sakuranomori Park at the end of January 2024.
We paid Y 3,300 for 2 adults and a kid.
The Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium was located in a huge area. We did not like the dolphin show. It was very disappointing but the rest of the place was very interesting.Written April 4, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

We enjoyed strolling through and taking in the feeling that this park holds and what it means.and represents. A very moving place to visit.Written June 1, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- jabitzMelbourne, Australia257 contributionsWe arrived for the high tide and weren't disappointed. The walk to the Shrine from the ferry terminal isn't too far. You can take photos of the tori gate as you approach the shrine and you don't need to go into the shrine to get a good photo of the gate. We did walk around the shrine, there is a one way walk around the shrine which is quite interesting in itself. There are lots of shops around between the ferry terminal and the shrine so plenty of options for eating or souvenirs. It wasn't too busy.Written June 2, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
