Tokyo's Secret Garden: Gotokuji and the Blessing of a Thousand Cats.

Discover Gotokuji This place is not only a shrine It is also a paradise for Maneki-neko, the beckoning cats Behind the Hall of Fortune Thousands of Maneki-neko are arrayed in a sacred formation From tiny to huge Each one is an embodiment of a wish In spring, cherry blossoms bloom In autumn, maple leaves are like fire Every step is taken on verses Every scene is immersed in a painting The beckoning cats whisper legends Come here to make a wish Take a cat home When the wish comes true Bring it back And exchange it for a bigger one to prove your faith No admission fee Your spirit can enter But be careful The beauty here is as fragile as cat porcelain Convenient transportation The adorable cat tram or regular routes Can take you to this magical place Take the Tokyu Railway at Sangenjaya Station Or transfer to the Odakyu Line from Shinjuku Every journey is the beginning of yearning Gotokuji Is not just a place to visit It is also a destination for the soul In this secret garden Every beckoning cat whispers softly Telling you Hope can be touched Just like every cherry blossom you gently stroke Every fallen leaf Hides a deep blessing
