[Tokyo, Asakusa] Enjoy the deeply traditional Tokyo from Kaminarimon to Nakamise to Senso-ji Temple

Pass through the striking Kaminarimon gate that stands out even from the street, walk through the bustling Nakamise shopping street lined with various shops on both sides filled with many tourists, and you will arrive at the main hall of Senso-ji Temple. Worshiping in the solemn atmosphere that makes you forget you are in the heart of a big city offers a moment to forget the noisy everyday life. On the way back, if you return through Nakamise and buy local sweets and souvenirs, your memories will become even more vivid. 📍Location: Kaminarimon to Senso-ji Temple, Asakusa, Taito-ku, Tokyo Tokyo Metro Ginza Line Asakusa Station / Tobu Skytree Line Asakusa Station – just a short walk 🕰️Hours: The temple grounds are open for worship 24 hours (visiting the main hall is usually from around 6:00 AM to 5:00 PM, but times may vary due to events) 💰Price per person: Free (fortune slips, amulets, etc. are charged separately) Recommended time: Early morning (fewer people) 💞Reason for recommendation: Located in the city center with easy access, it’s highly recommended because you can see iconic Tokyo sights like Kaminarimon, Nakamise, and Senso-ji Temple all at once!
