Sensoji (浅草寺, Sensōji, also known as Asakusa Kannon Temple) is a Buddhist temple located in Asakusa. It is one of Tokyo's most colorful and famous temples. This temple is dedicated to Kannon, the Buddhist goddess of mercy.

The Sanja (Sensoji) Festival of Asakusa Shrine is held on the third weekend in May. It became very popular during the Edo period (1603-1868), and today it features the parading of more than a hundred mikoshi (portable shrines) by residents around the crowded streets near Asakusa Shrine.
