I ❤️ Sensoji Temple - Tokyo 2023 - 10-18-2023

Exploring the Majestic Sensoji Temple in Japan
 
During my recent trip to Japan, one of the must-visit places on my list was the Sensoji Temple in Tokyo. After checking in and resting at our hotel in Nippori, we decided to head to the temple to see what it was all about. It was already 9pm, and although most of the shops in the area were closed, we managed to find a few that were still open. I took the opportunity to buy some skin care products as requested by my sibling.
 
As we made our way to the temple, we were immediately captivated by its majestic presence. The temple stood tall and proud, exuding a sense of tranquility and spirituality. Every nook and cranny of the temple complex seemed to tell a story of the local community and their way of life. It was fascinating to see how the locals lived and to experience their rich cultural heritage.
 
Visiting the Sensoji Temple in the evening turned out to be a great decision. The crowd was relatively smaller compared to what it would be during the daytime. We had the opportunity to explore the temple grounds at our own pace, taking in the intricate details of the architecture and the serene atmosphere. It was a truly immersive experience, allowing us to connect with the spiritual essence of the place.
 
Although I thoroughly enjoyed my visit in the evening, I couldn't help but be curious about how the temple would look like during the daytime. I imagined the vibrant colors of the temple's structures and the bustling energy of the surrounding streets. It left me with a strong desire to return and witness the temple in a different light.
 
In conclusion, the Sensoji Temple in Tokyo is a must-visit destination for anyone traveling to Japan. Its grandeur, cultural significance, and the opportunity to immerse oneself in the local community make it a truly unique experience. Whether you visit during the day or in the evening, the temple's beauty and spiritual atmosphere are sure to leave a lasting impression. Don't miss out on the chance to explore this enchanting place and discover the rich heritage of Japan.

I ♥ Puting Buhangin Pagbilao - Quezon (2012) - 09/29/2012

Image
I always pray for good weather when planning an out-of-town trip, as a typhoon can easily disrupt carefully planned travels. Fortunately, when we visited Puting Buhangin in Pagbilao, Quezon, the weather remained clear. I had been longing to visit this place since last year, but unforeseen circumstances always led to cancellations. Growing up in Quezon province, I felt a deep connection to this destination and wanted to appreciate the beauty of my hometown.   Initially, I had planned a solo backpacking trip and shared my travel plans online out of excitement. That's when I received a message from Mac, who expressed curiosity about my travels. I proposed the idea of going together to Puting Buhangin to cut down on expenses. Without hesitation, Mac agreed to join me on this adventure.   On the day of the tour, heavy rain poured down, making me fear that the trip would once again be cancelled. I reached out to Mac via SMS to confirm if he still wanted to go. If he had changed his mind

I ♥ PMA BAguio City 12/12/2010

Philippine Military Academy (PMA) Baguio Philippine Military Academy (PMA) Baguio was the first tourist spot I visited in this humble city. I went there last 2008 with my college friends and I really enjoyed our short stay there. There is no restriction in visiting the area. However, due to its gaining popularity they implemented policies that may annoy some first time travelers.  All visitors entering PMA must have individual valid IDs. A person without a valid ID can't enter PMA. If you're in a group and you don't have ID, you will be instructed to get off the jeepney at the gate and wait for your companions with IDs while they're enjoying the tour. Also, wearing slippers is a big no-no when you wanted to enter its premises. Even though you are wearing your expensive flip-flops the security personnel won't show any mercy and you may be force to await your companion at the gate. They promote wearing shoes because people who wanted to visit the area shou

I ♥ Batis Aramin Lucban Quezon 03/13/2011

  Batis Aramin Lucban Quezon Batis Aramin Resort, Hotel and Adventure Camp is just one of the few resorts near my hometown Tayabas, Quezon. We went there when we visited the well-known Catholic Pilgrimage site called “Kamay ni Hesus” which lies on the foot of Mt. Banahaw last 2011. You won't be lost to find the place because it is just on the other side of the popular retreat camp Kamay ni Hesus which is located in Malupak, Lucban Quezon. We don't have enough money to pay the 100 pesos entrance fee but because we wanted to explore the place we just made an alibi to the security personnel that we just wanted to do an ocular visit and see if we wanted to stay. The security personnel was very kind and he let the 5 of us enter the vicinity we just left our ID's for record updating.  There were a lot of guess that time. I saw a lot of private cars with LaSalle University stickers probably they rented the place for retreat. I never expected the resort to be so beautif
