Zōjō-ji Temple(3)

🌿✨In the Minato - ku area of Tokyo, skyscrapers dominate the landscape. However, thanks to the protection of cultural heritage, Zojoji Temple stands as one of the main green spaces in the district. Recently, developers around Shiba Park have proposed constructing super - tall buildings over 114 meters. Many local residents, citing environmental and cultural protection, have opposed these plans. 🌿✨Given the timing, such high - rise construction would inevitably cast shadows over Zojoji, blocking sunlight. Thus, the nearby residents argue that building high - rise structures in this area would clash with the local environment. With a history spanning centuries, Zojoji is now surrounded by over 30 sub - temples, many of which are designated as cultural properties by the Japanese government. 🌿✨ Together, they form a unique historical and cultural landscape in the region. 🌿✨ #CulturalSiteShare #JapanTravel #LivingAbroad 🌇🌟
