Aoyama

Tokyo

Glass, glass and more glass... what better way to store art than in a artform like this building. Buildings are beautiful. Buildings are art.

This is the lovely row of bamboo that leads to the entrance of Baiso-in, a very urban temple located along the ever busy Aoyama-dori street.

The inside of the temple grounds isn't very uniquely Japanese, as the main temple building is actually a mid-rise glass-covered building. I thought it was an office building at first. So in that sense, I guess it is unique, but don't expect any traditional buildings here. 

Although the bamboo entrance is so lovely that if you're in the Gaien area, I feel like it's worth a quick look :)

Closest station: Gaienmae Station on the Tokyo Metro Ginza Line (right in front of exit 1b)

This was a very luxurious property, with excellent amenities. Loved the Family Mart attached to it. Rooms were big and comfortable. Staff was kind and helped as much as they could. While breakfast is pricey, it’s extremely worth it. Best breakfast food I had in Tokyo.
