Japan travel Tokyo accommodation ~ Stay in "Ningyocho"

Introduced several accommodations in the "downtown" area consecutively, now I want to share with you the "Ningyocho" area in Nihonbashi, Japan. In the past, when people traveled to Tokyo, they didn't pay much attention to this attraction, but after the Japanese drama "Shinzanmono" starring Hiroshi Abe was released, people began to notice the "Ningyocho" attraction and indirectly became acquainted with the detective novels of Keigo Higashino. Sometimes, don't underestimate the Japanese people. Through the introduction of TV dramas, people can get to know Tokyo better, just like the previous Japanese drama "Monthly Wife", which was mostly filmed in Yokohama; "Do you only want to live in Kichijoji?" also introduced many different attractions in Tokyo. And personally, I also got to know other downtown areas in Tokyo through "Tokyo Love Story". For those interested in traditional Japanese architecture, the area around Nihonbashi is worth exploring. The main building of the Bank of Japan, a Baroque-style stone building, was designed by "Kingo Tatsuno", who also designed the Taiwan Public Hospital and Honglou. The Edo-style old shops in the Nihonbashi area have a nostalgic atmosphere and many delicious restaurants (such as the traditional wagashi shop "Eitaro" and the high-end fruit shop "Senbikiya"). There are even hometown specialty stores from various prefectures in Japan opening in Nihonbashi. Near "Ningyocho" is Suitengu Shrine, a famous fertility shrine in Tokyo. Many newlyweds come here to pray for children, and expectant mothers come to pray for a safe delivery and the healthy growth of their children. The reason why "Ningyocho" is particularly recommended is because it is located in the middle of Nihonbashi, Ningyocho, and Suitengu Shrine, and there are many delicious restaurants nearby. During the day, the shops are lively, and at night, they return to calmness. The transportation to the two airports is also convenient, making it a good place to live. However, the hotels here are different, and the most commonly mentioned one is "Sotetsu Fresa Inn Ningyocho". For those who like Toyoko Inn, there is also a branch in Ningyocho, or you can choose "Hotel Villa Fontaine Hakozaki" near Suitengu Shrine. In addition to taking the Keisei Electric Railway ACCESS from Narita Airport to "Ningyocho" or taking the Keikyu Line to connect to the Toei Asakusa Line to "Ningyocho" from Haneda Airport, the most convenient way to get here is to take the Limousine Bus that stops at the "Tokyo City Air Terminal (T-CAT)", which is very convenient whether you are coming from Narita Airport or Haneda Airport. "Hitomachi" has many delicious foods, and I have shared many of them before, such as "Futaba" tofu, "Tamahide" parent-child rice bowl, "Imahan" fried cola cake and meat cake, "Yanagiya" taiyaki, "Sucre-rie Dessert and Fruit Shop" cream puffs, "Nakayama" black sky bowl, "Juushou" ningyouyaki. The busiest center of "Hitomachi" is at Kanjyuzumachi Yokocho and Hitomachi Street. The map of the shopping street also shows many shops and subway exit information. It's lively during the day and quiet at night. You can eat delicious food as soon as you leave the hotel, and then return to the hotel for a quiet rest at night. Isn't this kind of accommodation great? 🚄Transportation Guide: Toei Asakusa Line | METRO Hibiya Line | Ningyocho Station | METRO Hanzomon Line | Suitengumae Station
