After having an in-depth Asakusa history tour, we will take you to a high-class traditional Japanese restaurant for lunch (cover photo). The restaurant is located in the heart of Asakusa very convenient to have a rest after a two-hour long in-depth history tour. Last but not the least, what you can enjoy is not just a meal but the building which was built based on Japanese traditional architecture. Wood is used for most of the framework, walls are made of clay and/or bamboo and sliding doors are made of Japanese paper. This tour culminates in enjoying traditional cuisine surrounded by the entirely Japanese settings developed over centuries.
And of course, the tour preceding the visit to the restaurant is one of a kind; an in-depth history tour in Asakusa.
For groups of three or more, we will use an earphone guides system which enables you to clearly listen to the guide from a distance.
This bridge has been one of the most important and popular rivers in Tokyo. Actually, the story of Sensoji temple originated in this river 1400 years ago.
Asakusa Culture Tourist Information Center is one of Asakusa’s newest sightseeing attractions. We will go to the open terrace Observation Deck on the top floor of the Center, where you can get a good view of the main part of Kaminarimon, the Thunder Gate, Nakamise shopping street, Sensoji Temple, and much more on one side, and on the other side, another splendid view of Tokyo Skytree and the Asahi Beer Headquarters.
Kaminarimon (Thunder Gate) is the entrance to the world of Buddhist temple and Shinto shrine. The world's well-known giant red lantern is hanging under the gate.
