One of the tourist resorts which are the most popular in Tokyo located in the front of Asakusa and Senso-ji is Kaminari-mon.
Although there are also many people whom the paper lantern which calls an official name god-of-the-wind Kaminari-mon, and with which Kaminari-mon is hanging down in the center regards as Kaminari-mon, they say this whole gate in fact. Incidentally this large paper lantern is what the founder and Konosuke Matsushita of Matsushita Electric presented in 1960.
