Sensoji (浅草寺)
Sensoji's five-story pagoda
One strange thing about the Japanese language is that characters (kanji) usually have multiple readings. Take the kanji for Senso-Ji for example. This famous temple is located in Asakusa (浅草) so when you see the kanji 浅草寺 you think this place must be called Asakusa Tera or Asakusa Dera (tera, 寺, means temple). Actually, it is read Sensoji so not a single character retains its “normal” reading.
