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.

Love the visual effects inside the elevator going up and down Shibuya Sky!The roof deck has an amazing and relaxing 360 view of Tokyo city. If you&#39;re lucky, you&#39;d even get to see the mighty Mt. Fuji from afar. Just pray for a good weather!With a good camera, you can also take pictures and videos of the famous Shibuya Scramble Crossing down below.

Many people experience a little worse, hot projects still have to buy DPA, 20,000 steps a day is sure, geocentric exploration, Indiana Jones adventure, etc. are really good.

It&#39;s a great place to visit, especially for Harry Potter fans! You can learn a lot about backstage and enjoy your time there. Also, you can buy a lot of interesting stuff and enjoy a delicious meal in Hogward&#39;s canteen :)

The scenery is pretty good. There was a Conan event and staff members wore doll costumes to take photos with us. You can also collect stamps, but it is a little smaller than I expected. Overall it is very good, the staff are very enthusiastic, and the elevator is fast!
