This year I have been to Tokyo three times and every time I have to go to Asakusa. Today I will tell you why you should not miss going to this area. What is good about it? 🤔 1️⃣ There are many foods to choose from. Most importantly, they are very delicious. You can walk in randomly and it is still delicious. There are many famous restaurants here. They have everything, whether it is savory or sweet. The downside is that most restaurants open at 11 am. I recommend coming here for lunch or dinner. 🍜 2️⃣ Excellent shopping area. Girls can shop tax free because there are so many shops to choose from. Some things are cheaper than Donki. Or if you are lazy and want to shop completely, there is Donki and a department store near the temple. I think this branch has fewer people than the others. 🛍️ 3️⃣ Mu Telu 🙏🏻📿 When you come to the temple, you can't help but make a wish. Sensoji Temple is famous for its amulets. You can choose any kind you want. Health, work, money, love, family, they have everything. Their stuff is awesome, I can't say it's true 555555. For those who buy amulets, don't forget to activate the ultimate by circling the amulet on the incense pot at the temple 3 times. 🤣 #TokyoTravel

📍Address: 1 Chome-20-3 Asakusa, Taito City, Tokyo 111-0032 Japan 📍Atmosphere/Facilities: A small standing sushi bar 📍Key Points Instead of Instagram, I thoroughly searched Google Maps to find this place. They highly recommended the tuna here, and although I've never been impressed by tuna before, I decided to give it a try. The tuna was good, but I couldn't really tell. However, the golden eye snapper and ark shell were insanely delicious. The eel and tuna were decent. You can't go wrong with anything you order here. We stopped after a moderate amount since we planned to snack a lot, but I understand why some reviews mention eating a ton. 📍Average Price per Person: 3,200 yen (Tuna set, golden eye snapper, eel, ark shell) 📍Rating: 4.5/5

#TokyoTravel 💌 When you have the chance to fly to Tokyo, in addition to shopping and eating, another thing you can't miss is to intentionally pay homage to the Buddha at a temple. 💓 "Asakusa" or the Red Lantern Temple, as we Buddhists like to call it, because of the legend of its sacredness, whoever comes to pay homage and pray will have their wishes granted. 💗 This place has beautiful architecture. And the temple's distinctive red color, especially the giant red lantern at Kaminarimon Gate, which anyone who comes must stop by to take a picture and return with a great impression. 📍 Sensō-ji 2-chōme-3-1 Asakusa, Taitō-ku, 📍 Tōkyō-to 111-0032, Japan ⏰ 06.00-17.00 hrs. ⏰ October-March 06.00 - 16.30 hrs. ☎️ 813-3842-0181 #IndyTrip #travel #onedaytrip #missnature #centralregionteam #waitingfordeparture #familytrip #goodatmosphere #beautifulphotocoordinates #wintertravel #winterattractions #japanesetravel #japantravel #japanreview #travelabroad #worship #enhanceluck #amulet #famoustemple #tripgiveawayfreeaccommodation #christmas2023

Just the giant chef head on top of the building is enough to take a photo of Kappabashi, a place that gathers all kinds of kitchen-related products. It is easy to get to from Asakusa, a popular tourist spot for Thais. In addition to the giant chef head, there is also a golden kappa statue that is like a sacred place for people to pay homage. In addition, the old-fashioned and classic atmosphere of the various shops is worth a walk to enjoy the atmosphere. For those who are tired of the modern, crowded atmosphere of Shinjuku, Harajuku, and Shibuya, come here. You might get a good frying pan and spatula to use.

These days, Thais are traveling to Japan a lot, especially in Tokyo, where no matter where you go, you will find Thai friends. A must-see attraction when visiting Tokyo is the large red lantern temple, Sensoji, in the Asakusa area, because it is a highlight that you must check in, worship, walk around and eat delicious snacks, and shop for various products on the street in front of the temple. Or if you want to go all out, girls must rent a kimono to wear and walk around the temple. But for us this time, we didn't focus on the area in front of the temple, but walked through the back of the temple to find a row of buildings that have been transformed into cute shops, giving off a sense of ancient Japan. If it's during the cool weather, I guarantee that walking along this street will be very enjoyable because it's not hot, and you can also take pictures with old buildings that are mostly decorated in brown and original wood tones. It's like walking in the past. The shops on both sides of the road have a variety of products for you to shop for, whether it's snacks or general products. You can stop and look at whatever you like. As for those who like taking pictures, they will probably like it because the old-fashioned buildings contrast with the modernity of the tall buildings, making it a perfect contrast. If you go to Tokyo during this time, And stop by Asakusa area. Stop by and walk around. I believe you will be so happy that you won't want to leave.

#TokyoItinerary Amid the hustle and bustle of Tokyo, I longed for a journey full of history and nature, so I chose two very different places: Sensō-ji Temple and Ueno Zoo. First we came to Sensoji Temple, one of the oldest temples in Tokyo. It was built in 628 AD and symbolizes the faith of the Japanese nation. The huge red lantern in front of Kaminarimon is particularly spectacular in the sun, attracting tourists to stop and take pictures. The temple is filled with so much incense that I can't help but feel respectful. The Sensoji Temple under the setting sun is like a golden scroll, which makes me feel extremely shocked by the beautiful scenery. 🌇 Next, I came to Ueno Zoo, which was established in 1882 and is the oldest zoo in Tokyo. There are hundreds of animals here, especially the cute pandas, which always enchant visitors. Seeing the lively animals fills my heart with indescribable joy. I was amazed by the ancient culture of Sensō-ji Temple and the vitality of Ueno Zoo. This day's exploration made me better understand the charm and changes of Tokyo, and experience the difference between day and night, as if witnessing the various stages of life. 🌍❤️This journey has given me a deeper affection for Tokyo, and I invite you to experience the beauty of history and nature! #TokyoTravel #Sensoji Temple #UenoZoo #DayTour #TravelExperience

Asakusa is famous for its monjayaki, but there is a udon restaurant that I always give in to temptation and enter every time I go to Asakusa💭🤍 That place is Handmade Udon Kanaya!!🌸 When I watch people passing by, the storefront and show window catch my eye at least once🥢🍤 No need to read reviews, this is delicious. Customers enter the store confidently. The price is also this price for this location in Asakusa. Not too expensive, not too cheap. Just the right amount of reasonableness. It has an atmosphere that seems to appeal to a variety of customers, whether with friends, parents and children, or on a date🫶🏻 No matter who you come with, you can't go wrong🈁💦 Last time, I was fascinated by the Aosa Agemochi Udon, but this time I chose the Tororo Udon! ✨ Good texture, good quantity, rich broth, lots of grated yam The aosa fried rice cake was also very delicious, but the comfort of the grated yam and egg...👌🏻 I'm sure that no matter what you eat, you can't go wrong at this restaurant, so if I come to Asakusa again, I'm sure I'll be guided right away🎊 🌷Extra🌷 [Kanesue] Warabimochi 500 yen I tried it on a friend's recommendation and was surprised at how soft it was! It's fluffy and creamy and delicious😳 It's a bit pricey, but I recommend you try it at least once💪🏻 [Kokonoe] Fried manju (sesame) 230 yen I can't help but eat the fried buns here, they're just the right size to fill up your stomach. You can eat them all in one bite. It's not heavy, so I eat it even if I'm not hungry 🫘💭 There were a lot of people and the shop was a little hectic, so I paid with PayPay The lady at the shop complimented us, saying "It's fast! That's good!" and we were so proud 🤣 (I definitely recommend PayPay 👍🏻 lol) If you have a chance to go to Asakusa, please try it! 🤍" #Asakusa #DomesticTravel #TokyoTrip #tokyo #Tokyo #Kanoya #HandmadeUdon #FriedManju #Kokonoe #WarabiMochi #Kanesue

#2月好地方2025 The thickest matcha ice cream in the world🍦, right near Sensoji Temple, is definitely one of the must-eats on the Tokyo trip for matcha lovers🧾 Matcha ice cream with concentration level 7 🍵 The strongest matcha is grade 7, which is slightly more expensive than regular matcha. It has a strong matcha flavor, but it is not particularly bitter. The bitterness and sweetness are just right. People who don’t drink much matcha may find it too bitter. The store also sells matcha chocolate, various teas and snacks as souvenirs, which you can buy according to your needs. It's really a matcha shop worth a special trip! 📍Suzukien Asakusa Address: 3-chome Asakusa, Taito-ku, Tokyo, 111-0032 4-3 (near Sensoji Temple, about 10 minutes walk) Opening hours: 11:00~17:00

#2月好去地方2025 The restaurant is located on the second floor of a commercial street in Asakusa. The decoration is retro and the environment is clean. Many elderly people order a cup of coffee, read the newspaper, and sit there for the entire morning. Signature dish "Fried Pork Chop Sandwich🥪" The pork chop is fried crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. It is not thick but very solid and full of gravy. Paired with the special sauce, it is a perfect match! Cabbage 🥬 can relieve greasiness! Cheese Sandwich🥪 Salty and fragrant cheese + toast, crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, it stretches when you bite it, super satisfying! Full of happiness! 📍【Ginza Brasil Asakusa Branch】 Address: 2F, 1-28-2 Asakusa, Taito-ku, Tokyo Business hours: 09:00 - 15:00 (Closed on Wednesdays)

#FebruaryGoodPlaces2025 #AsakusaFood #Dorayaki This "Kameju" is a must-buy Dorayaki when you come to Asakusa! It is also one of the famous Dorayaki shops in Tokyo. There are many people queuing up as soon as it opens. The Dorayaki is all handmade and sold on the same day. It is still warm when you buy it. The Dorayaki is very big, the crust is very soft and chewy with a bit of burnt aroma, the red bean filling is sweet and rich, it's really delicious😋 There are also dorayaki with white bean filling, which is also delicious and a little sweeter than red bean filling. Personally, I still like red bean the most, which is the most classic~ We bought 6 for ourselves, haha, because the shelf life is relatively short, only about 3 days, if you want to buy some as souvenirs to give to others, you may have to consider whether the time is enough! It is recommended to buy it earlier! If there are too many people, the Dorayaki will be sold out by the evening. 💰: One Dorayaki ¥430 🕰️Business hours: AM10:00~PM7:00 📍Address: 〒111-0034 Tokyo, Taito-ku, Kaminarimon 2-chome 18-11

Asakusa, which attracts tourists from all over the world, offers a mix of traditional Japanese temples like Sensoji and Asakusa Shrine, as well as modern attractions like Tokyo Skytree. Kaminarimon in Asakusa is a popular photo spot, always crowded with tourists taking pictures during the day.

Visiting Sensō-ji in Asakusa was an unforgettable experience. ⛩ The moment I stepped through the iconic Kaminarimon Gate, I was captivated by the vibrant energy of the bustling Nakamise Street, filled with traditional snacks and souvenirs. The towering five-story pagoda and the magnificent main hall reflected the beauty of Japanese culture and history. The scent of burning incense in the purification area created a serene atmosphere, making me feel deeply connected to the spiritual essence of the temple. Sensō-ji is truly a treasure of Tokyo, where the past and present harmoniously coexist If you want to go to this temple you can take a subway (Tokyo metro Ginza Line) the name of the station is “Asakusa” it is so easy and convenient Or if you are staying in Ueno you can go there by JR Yamanote Line. Ueno station > Asakusa station. Hope you guys enjoy the Tokyo trip :)#tokyo #sensoji #asakusa #travel
