In a Sunday morning, tourists and local flocks into Asakusa Kannon Temple (Sensoji) grounds, Tokyo's most famous and popular religious place. The legend says that in the year 628, two brothers fished a statue of Kannon, the goddess of mercy, out of the Sumida River, and even though they put the statue back into the river, it always returned to them. Consequently, Sensoji was built there, being the oldest temple in town.
This is one of the many Buddhist deities found in the sorroundings of Sensoji, also known as Asakusa Kannon Temple (the goddess of mercy), Tokyo's oldest, situated in Asakusa, a very popular district among locals and visitors.
