4K | Graves of the 47 Ronin at Sengakuji Temple in Tokyo

The forty-seven Ronin (leaderless samurai) avenged the death of their master. As a consequence they were obliged to commit seppuku (ritual suicide) for the crime of murder.
This event in the 18th century is known as the Ako incident.
The memory of the 47 Ronin, who put duty and justice before their fear of death, has lived down through the centuries as one of the greatest examples of honour and loyalty in Japanese culture.
Each year, on December 14th, thousands of people from around the world visit the graves of the 47 Ronin at Sengakuji Temple in Tokyo to pay their respects.
