Asakusa: Old Tokyo Temple Walk
🚶7 mapped stops
Tokyo's oldest temple district survived earthquakes, firebombing, and the wrecking ball. Senso-ji has drawn pilgrims since 645 AD, and the streets around it still sell the same lucky charms, rice crackers, and hand-forged kitchen knives they did a century ago.

- 2 Nakamise-dori Shopping Street A 250-meter lane of shops selling senbei rice crackers, lucky cat figurines, and handmade chopsticks -- some families have run their stalls here for over a hundred years
