On the way to Gotokuji Temple from the station, you'll find the "Gotokuji Shopping Street."
As you walk along Gotokuji Shopping Street, you might wonder what this place is... Well, it's a rest area!
This is a lifesaver, isn't it? Such a kind town, Setagaya-ku.
Meow, a beckoning cat welcomes you. This is because Gotokuji Temple is famous as the town of beckoning cats (more on that later).
Inside the rest area, there are three two-seater benches, stools, and chairs!
There's also a map of Gotokuji Temple on the wall, and it functions as an information corner that seems useful for a stroll.
Since it's a bit of a distance to Gotokuji Temple, this is the perfect spot to take a break when you get tired of walking.
There are also mini tables.
Gotokuji Shopping Street has unique shops like sweet potato shops and coffee shops, so it's a great place to enjoy takeout.
Since we're in Gotokuji, let's be overwhelmed by the beckoning cats at the end.
So, how about using this as a place to rest around Gotokuji Station?
