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.

However, my recent visit left me with mixed feelings and a sense of disappointment. Join me as I share my experience exploring the Taoist Temple and uncovering its hidden flaws.   Upon arriving at the Taoist Temple, I quickly realized that the entire place could be explored within a mere 10 to 15 minutes, or perhaps 20 minutes if you take the time to capture pictures and pose at the so-called "sites" that attract most tourists.
