The designer was Professor Ito Chuta of Tokyo Imperial University, and it is known as a unique example in the history of Japanese temple architecture. Rooted in the Tsukiji district, it has long served as a spiritual sanctuary for many people. Its beautiful architectural beauty deeply moves all who behold it.
