Famous for being the largest and oldest temple in Shanghai, the Longhua Temple is dedicated to the Maitreya Buddha (the future Buddha according to Buddhist eschatology). It is also the most preserved of its kind, retaining its original architectural design of a Song Dynasty monastery. Explore the area’s five halls, which includes the legendary Longhua Pagoda—the tallest edifice within the temple at 40.4 meters in height!

Sensoji Temple (Asakusa Kannon Temple)
Sensō-ji (金龍山浅草寺, Kinryū-zan Sensō-ji) is an ancient Buddhist temple located in Asakusa, Tokyo, Japan. It is Tokyo's oldest temple, and one of its most significant. Formerly associated with the Tendai sect of Buddhism, it became independent after World War II. Adjacent to the temple is a five-story pagoda, the Asakusa Shinto shrine,[1] as well as many shops with traditional goods in the Nakamise-dōri. When we went there there’s a lot of people. If you have kids and still riding a stroller, they have a lift so you can enter the temple. I will recommend this place.
