The official name of Sensoji Temple comes from the Golden Dragon Mountain, and it is called "Golden Dragon Mountain Sensoji Temple", and the name "Golden Dragon Dance" comes from the name of this mountain. "Golden Dragon Dance" is a dance that started in 1958 to commemorate the reconstruction of the main hall of Sensoji Temple, Kannon Hall. This dance is based on the story of Guanyin Bodhisattva enshrined in Sensoji Temple. According to legend, she appeared as a golden dragon that descended from the sky, and overnight she created a thousand pine trees that symbolize a good harvest. 
The 18-meter-long, 88-kilogram shining golden dragon dances gorgeously to the music of the celebration, and this scene is absolutely impressive.

Thank you Trip.com for letting me grab the ticket near the sunset without adding an outrageous price. I grabbed the ticket at 15:20. It was almost 4 o&#39;clock to go upstairs to store the bag to make up and makeup. It was two hours there and I could wait until dusk. It was worth the fare. I recommend everyone to buy it here!

Nice kid experience and it was fun! The transport to the venue also very convenient. One drawback is the queuing time almost 1 hour per game if it is a Japan public holiday.

I went there and wanted to go. It was so fun. Unfortunately, I didn&#39;t go to Qibao Restaurant. There was only one appointment in the new park. It seems that it is destined to be left for the next time. The service in the entire park is very powerful, and the staff provides full emotional value, which is great.

I visited Warner Bros. Studio Tour Tokyo &ndash; The Making of Harry Potter, and it was an absolutely magical experience! From the moment you step in, you&rsquo;re transported into the world of Hogwarts. The sets, like the Great Hall, Dumbledore&rsquo;s office, and Platform 9&frac34;, are recreated with stunning detail. Interactive elements, such as potion-making and broomstick flying, add so much fun and immersion. The costumes and props from the films were a highlight &ndash; it felt like walking onto the movie set! The staff were incredibly friendly, and the butterbeer at the caf&eacute; was a perfect touch. Highly recommend to all Harry Potter fans and anyone who loves a bit of magic!

It is the highest in Tokyo. The weather was very good on the day we went. We could go upstairs after 10 minutes of queueing downstairs. On top, we could see Mount Fuji in the distance. The nearby Tokyo Bay was shining in the sun.
