Asakusa Tokyo, Japan

Asakusa—which is surrounded by water, immersed in rich tradition—is an area around Sensoji Temple with Kaminarimon, Thunder Gate and shopping street Nakamise. Take a view from the river, boat on a waterfront boat or walk through traditional streets full of stalls and genuinely Japanese commodity souvenir shops. Visit Asakusa and experience genuine Japanese traditions, arts and crafts, and bring home a small piece.
