Asakusa in Tokyo is a famous place mentioned in tourist guidebooks. In my tours, you will not only visit Senso-ji Temple and other temples that are mentioned in the guidebooks, but I will also take you to unusual stores and interesting stores in the back alleys of the area.

In addition, since my tours take you to the Asakusa area, I sometimes take you to places that are a bit far from Asakusa station. I may change the route depending on your stamina and other factors, but if there are no problems, I will basically guide you along the route. In summer and other hot season, we will take a break periodically.

Asakusa

Asakusa has many stores where you can buy kimonos on the back streets and eat delicious dumplings on the spot. Let's visit such stores and fill your stomach. The following places are especially recommended and must be included in the tour. Asakusa Sightseeing Center There is an observation floor where you can enjoy a panoramic view of Asakusa. Take pictures while viewing the Sky Tree and Asakusa. Asakusa Goldfish You can play the traditional Japanese game of goldfish scooping. There are also many goldfish goods. It is also a photo spot, so you can take commemorative photos.

Sogenji Temple (Kappa Temple)

Do you know the Japanese yokai kappa? It is said that the kappa of the Sumida River, whose life was once saved by Kihachi, cooperated in the flood control work at this temple, and that those who saw the kappa mysteriously became prosperous in their business. This is one of the few temples where you can learn about kappa, one of the most famous yokai in Japan. Please take this opportunity to see it.
