I was going to Nihonbashi to visit the seven lucky gods, however it seems the special stamp rally was over yesterday. Therefore I went to Takasago to visit Shibamata Shichifukujin (柴又七福神).
Shibamata is very famous for the movie series "Tora san" directed by Yoji Yamada.
Tora is tiger. This is the year of tiger, so I decided to visit their seven lucky gods.
I really enjoyed Shibamata taishakuten (柴又帝釈天) where the sculpture gallery and the garden were awesome.
After visiting seven temples, I walked to the river and visited Tora san kinenkan (寅さん記念館) and Yamada Yoji museum (山田洋次ミュージアム) and Yamamoto tei (山本亭). All were nice and there were many things to see so I hope to visit there someday again.
