Itabashi

#summervacay In Itabashi, young visitors (including students and local youth) looking for photogenic culture and a laid‑back vibe often gravitate toward Jōren‑ji Temple, home of the Tokyo Daibutsu (Great Buddha). Why Jōren‑ji Temple Appeals to Young People. Iconic Bronze Buddha Photo Spot: At 13 m tall and perched atop a lotus pedestal, the Tokyo Daibutsu makes for an impressive and serene photo backdrop. Hidden Statues and Garden Sculptures: The temple grounds feature Jizō statues, the Seven Lucky Gods, the Wisdom Granting Bodhisattva tucked in greenery—surprising and fun for exploration. Peaceful, Local Atmosphere: Unlike Tokyo’s main temple districts, Jōren‑ji is rarely crowded—ideal for mindfulness, vlogging, photography, or relaxing with friends. #couplestrip #travel #beachlife #naturalwonders #thingstodo #familytravel
