A Charming Exploration of Art and Tradition in Kawasaki

How about an out-of-the-ordinary experience appreciating the starry night sky and visiting Japanese temples. Kawasaki Daishi Temple is renowned for its ceremonial cleaning from evil spirits and influences. The street approaching the temple is always bustling with worshippers and tourists giving it a festival-like atmosphere. We recommend walking down this street and trying out the famous Kuzu mochi- Kawasaki's regional sweet.
