The Sensoji Temple (Japanese: 浅草寺; Rōmaji: Sensō-ji) is a temple in Tokyo, Japan. To enter it, one must pass under the "Thunder Gate".
During the events of the PC, SNES, and NES versions of Mario is Missing!, Koopa Troopas stole the red Sensoji Temple Lantern that usually hangs on the Gate. Luigi had to search for it in the city, and when he found it, he could return the paper lantern, receiving a prize of 1,755 dollars.
The Sensō-ji also appears as a landmark featured on the Tokyo Blur courses in Mario Kart Tour; In particular, the Tokyo Blur 2 and Tokyo Blur 4 layouts involve driving past the temple and through the Kaminarimon. Tokyo Blur is also featured as a track in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe as part of the Booster Course Pass, with the temple appearing in a similar capacity.
