After the whole day trip.. We headed to our Hotel, Jiragonno Fuji No Yakata. It’s situated at the bottom of Mount Fuji. I love the traditional style of the hotel. We were all dressed in yakata, a Japanese robe, which everyone was supposed to wear for dinner.

Walkway leading to SPA Hot Spring

Hot Spring…. Left: Men   Right: Ladies…
This is the most interesting part as anyone who use the SPA need to be NAKED. No towel or whatever is allowed inside…. Its really shy for me to go naked into the SPA :). Its my first time but i really don’t want to miss this chance of a lifetime.. GO!!!!!!! hahaha.. My roommate is shy and he went to the SPA in the early morning 5am.. while everyone is sleeping.. heheehhe Good one..

For those who is not going for the Hot Spring can use the massage chair

Hah… Total of 9 hours flight from Brunei - KLIA - Japan ! It’s so tiring… i can’t really sleep well on the plane. Upon arrival at Narita Airport, we have a short Tokyo City Tour then proceed to visit the oldest and most impressive temple in Tokyo - Asakusa Kannon Temple.

Poor old man sleeping at the street….

The Asakusa Temple is a favorite place to visit for out of towners and foreigners. On the day of our visit there were many school chidren on class trips. The temple is dedicated to the Kannon or Godness of Mercy, said to be founded in the 7th century.

A fountain with many ladles where people cleanse their hands and rinse their mouths before entering the temple. This washes away any impurities. We are not suppose to rinse our hand directly to the fountain. Its impolite. We need to use the ladles provided to get the water and pour to our hands. The water flows out from the mouth of the dragon can be drink.

Bronze incense burner, where worshipers wave smoke over their bodies to heal or prevent illness.

A five storied pagoda, Asakusa Shrine

Nakamise Street, the long narrow approach, to the temple is lined with small souvenir shops and foods.
