SENSOJI TEMPLE

Once we finished our yummy dorayaki, we walked past the shops to the end of the street. There was another gate but it was even bigger than the first one we had passed under.

“Wowee zowee,” I said, craning my neck to look up at it. This one was two stories tall! It also had a giant red lantern hanging from the entryway.

“This is the Hozomon,” Mom said. “This gate leads into the main grounds of the temple.”

As we passed under it, I looked up.

“Dragons!” I shouted.

“Ooh,” Sophie said. “That’s so awesome.”

Dad looked at his phone. “This area used to be prone to fires, so the dragons were carved into the bottom of the lantern to protect the temple.”

“What do you mean?” I asked. “That doesn’t make sense. Don’t they breathe fire?”
