Itinéraire

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

Quartiers au néon, sanctuaires paisibles, cuisine superbe : Tokyo est une immense métropole ordonnée, reliée par des trains ponctuels.

Chaque quartier a des allures de ville à part entière. Le célèbre carrefour de Shibuya et les tours, les bars et les ruelles de Golden Gai à Shinjuku vibrent d'énergie, tandis qu'Harajuku mêle mode des jeunes et calme boisé du sanctuaire Meiji Jingu. À Asakusa, le temple Sensō-ji et sa rue marchande font vivre un Tokyo plus ancien, et Ginza propose de grands magasins raffinés et des galeries.

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