We are in Tokyo and today we treat ourselves to a little night view over the famous shopping street Naka-mise-dori, which leads directly to the magnificent temple Senso-ji. Having already pushed our way through the crowds of visitors down below during the day, we now enjoy a quiet view over the tourist district of Asakusa.
With some research, I had found a not-so-hidden viewing platform, from which we now admired the great night view. Even at this not-so-late evening hour, there were still some people walking down there, although the many stores that offer their many souvenirs and snacks left and right of the path during the day had already been closed for a while.
And also Senso-ji Temple is showing up in the dark and is presenting itself from one of its many wonderful sides. And of course we will stop by there again later on our way home As usual, I will also have to take a few more photos there, even though I have already lingered at this temple many times before.
Tokyo is, of course, a city that never sleeps, and therefore you will still meet a few people everywhere during the night hours. People who come from somewhere or are on the way to somewhere. For us, the day was now almost over, but we did not really want to go back to our hotel yet.
I would have preferred to stay up here for a little while longer and then take a long walk around the city. But sometimes it's just time to end the day that lies behind you. Tomorrow there will be enough time to discover something else...
