Asakusa 2006 (video)...
Asakusa 2006
Last night, made the annual trip to the Asakusa Temple. I like to come here every year on New Years Eve and early morning of January 1. I'm not a Buddhist or Shinto but, I can appreciate the spirituality of what's happening here. Honestly, I'm totally captivated by the architecture, large numbers of people (3-4 million in a 2-3 day period) and especially the outdoor food stands. The food is so enjoyable on a cold January morning around 2-3am. Hope you can view and enjoy the video.
