  • Kaminarimon Gate
    The grand entrance to the Sensoji precinct - it is guarded by two fierce deities and is famous for its huge lantern.
  • Nakamise Shopping Street (Kaminarimon)
    This shopping street has existed for centuries. We'll stop at a few shops that have been a favourite since the Edo era.
  • Senso-ji Temple
    Sensoji is often thought of as the temple of the people. So, we'll visit the temple as a local would - we'll brush incense smoke over ourselves and wet our hands at a spring to cleanse away bad spirits. No visit to Sensoji is complete without getting an Omikuji (Fortune Telling Slip). Sensoji has a fascinating backstory and we'll deep dive into it.
  • Asakusa
    The lively backstreets host a wide variety of shops, bars, restaurants, and traditional shopping streets. Asakusa was once the cultural centre of Tokyo and there are still remnants of Geisha and entertainment culture to explore.
  • Kappabashi Street (Kappabashi Dogugai)
    Opening a restaurant? Cafe? Bar? Need a new knife? Just the right-sized bowl? A sake bottle-shaped lantern? This area is a one-stop-shop for everything. It's a fascinating window into Japanese food culture.
