#45 雷門 Kaminari-mon, Japanese great shrine

2019. 2. 27

Hi everyone, how are you?

It's kÜshi.

You can study about Japan with Japanese sentence here.

I'm sure it's the best way.

I'm making a site about sightseeing spots in Japan.

So let's go!

Today's spot is 雷門 /kaminari-mon/

This is a shrine of the god of the wind and the god

of thunder.

雷門 is so famous that it's a symbol of Asakusa,

which is one of the cities in Tokyo.

When you go there, you must see the large paper

lantern.

The tall of the lantern is 4m and the weight is as

much as 700kg!! It's so impressive.

And look at the both side of the lantern and you can

find two gods: the wind god and the thunder god.

The wind god is called 風神/fuu-jin/

And the thunder god is called 雷神/rai-jin/

It's good to visit there at noon, but it's also good at

night because 雷門 is illuminated and looks so

beautiful and mysterious.

Why don't you visit there to see two gods and the

lantern?

Thank you so much for reading!

See you next time!
