Temple Hopping Around Ueno | Japan 2016 | Episode 25
Our first stop on our temple hop was Tennoji Temple in the Yanaka area just a short walk north from Ueno. It is a walled complex with a large Buddha statue, gardens and beautiful buildings. It was so peaceful while we were there, having it to ourselves for the most part of our visit. Right outside of Tennoji Temple is Yanaka Cemetery, a large cemetery which used to be connected to the temple in years past.
After wandering around the cemetery for awhile we started to make our way to our next destination for the day, deciding to take a route through a little residential area with a few smaller temples dotted around according to Google Maps. What we found was an extremely charming neighbourhood with temple after temple to visit. It took us a lot longer to make our way to our next destination because it seemed that at every turn there was a new temple to explore.
After visiting our last temple in the Yanaka area, with it’s large golden Buddha statue, we were hungry and happened upon a little Chinese restaurant. It was a little hole in the wall kind of place but produced some amazing food which hit the spot and sent us on our way to Nezu Shrine.
This shrine is located on very large grounds, feeling more like a park with a shrine. It was very green and leafy, had a large pond with koi and several pathways lined with orange torii gates. It was the torii which lured us in, but the shrine building and it’s accompanying gate turned out to be outstanding and slightly unusual for it’s lavish embellishments.
Our last stop along our hop was Ueno Toshogu Shrine located in Ueno Park. This shrine is dedicated to Tokugawa Ieyasu who was the founder of the Tokugawa Shogunate. It’s similarly lavish as Nezu Shrine, a very similar looking construction method. It’s hard to get a sense of the grandeur of the Shrine as it’s gated and visitors are not allowed inside the guarded area.
We strolled out of Ueno Park via a pathway lined with trees lite up to resemble cherry blossoms, at least that was our take, and past a octagonal temple on Benten Island.
All that hopping had us hungry and we were craving BBQ meats. We headed to the red light district, Kabukicho, where we’ve had success finding a great little place in the past. After taking in some of the spectacle of Kabukicho we found a BBQ place which felt oddly familiar. Nicole thought we had eaten there before. It was fantastic, nothing quite like grilling your own meat over charcoal at your table.
Full we headed home via Shinjuku Station, the large station right next to Kabukicho.
We hope you enjoy coming along and enjoying the sights with us.

箱根 仙石原 ススキ草原 Japanese pampas grass in Sengokubara,Hakone -FHD-
I have shot movies of the Japanese pampas grass of Sengokubara in Hakone.
The scenery of Japanese pampas grass basking in the sunlight and breathing in the wind makes me feel deeper in the late autumn.
It is exactly what I call the landscape of autumn in Japan.
I would appreciate seeing this video and letting everyone have fun.
太陽の光を燦々と浴び、風にそよぐススキの風景は晩秋をより深く感じさせてくれます。
まさに日本の秋の風景と言ったところではないでしょうか。
この動画をご覧いただいて皆様が楽しんで頂けたら幸いです。

Japan Adventures: Hakone Museum of Art
I was able to go to the Hakone Museum of Art, which was very beautiful. It had sculptures and pottery, along with a bamboo and moss garden (that green stuff that looks like grass is actually moss! Lots and lots of moss).
