Introduction

If you want to learn about Japanese culture but feel that Senso-ji Temple is too far away, why not visit Hama-rikyu Gardens instead? Although this shrine is not large, it has unique features such as red torii gates, wooden ema plaques, and traditional Japanese amulets. Every Sunday, this place also turns into a large market where you can browse small stalls and maybe even find some antiques.
