Itinerario

  1. Gotenzaka Slope & Kyoo-ji Temple ~up the “Palace Slope” to the 1836 gate scarred by bullets from the 1868 Battle of Ueno, when the temple hid the shogun’s last loyalists. Viewed from the lane after evening closing~

    10 min

  2. Hatsune Koji ~a wooden post-war arcade two people wide: red lanterns lit, izakaya counters filling up, rice-cracker shop still open. This alley only truly comes alive at this hour~

    10 min

  3. Yanaka wooden townscape at dusk ~lantern-lit lanes of pre-war timber houses that survived the 1923 earthquake and the 1945 air raids, with the smell of dinner from open kitchens~

    15 min

  4. Yuyake Dandan ~the “Sunset Steps” at their namesake hour: the shopping street glowing below, the neighbourhood cats out on the stone, and the best photograph of the walk~

    15 min

  5. Yanaka Ginza ~170 m of family-run shops at closing time: paper lanterns lit, grills still going, shutters painted with cats. Walked through with the guide~

    20 min

  6. Yomise-dori ~literally “Night-Stall Street”, the local shopping road that once was exactly that, laid over the covered Aizome River~

    10 min

  7. Hebi-michi “Snake Road” ~a lane that bends exactly along the buried Aizome River and still marks the Taito–Bunkyo ward border; hidden bars and galleries on both sides~

    15 min

  8. Nezu Shrine ~founded some 1,900 years ago, the 1706 complex of the 5th shogun surviving intact as Important Cultural Properties. The tunnel of vermilion torii after dark, with the city gone quiet~

    15 min

About Tokio

Barrios de neón, santuarios tranquilos, comida excelente y distritos singulares: Tokio es una metrópolis inmensa y ordenada, de trenes puntuales.

Cada distrito parece una ciudad propia. El famoso cruce de Shibuya y las torres, los bares y los callejones de Golden Gai en Shinjuku vibran de energía, mientras que Harajuku mezcla la moda juvenil con la calma boscosa del santuario Meiji Jingu. En Asakusa, el templo Sensō-ji y su calle comercial mantienen vivo un Tokio más antiguo, y Ginza ofrece elegantes grandes almacenes y galerías.

Top-ranked sights in Tokio: Senso-ji Temple (Asakusa Temple), Tokyo Imperial Palace, Meiji Shrine (Meiji Jingu).
