Opis
Explore the charming streets of Shibamata on a guided walking tour from Ginza. Visit the historic Shibamata Taishakuten Temple, stroll along the Edogawa River, and enjoy local snacks.
Meet your guide under the clock tower of Wako, a symbol of sophistication in Ginza. Board the subway and Keisei Line for a 45-minute journey to Shibamata. Listen as your guide shares insights about the sights and Tokyo’s intricate transport system.
Arrive at Shibamata Taishakuten (Daikyoji), a historic temple founded in 1629. Admire the intricate wood carvings in the “Sculpture Gallery,” depicting stories from the Lotus Sutra. Stroll through the serene Suikeien Garden, a tranquil oasis of greenery.
Wander down the Taishakuten Sando, a street lined with shops and eateries that retain the charm of the Showa era. Visit the famous dango shop “Toraya,” featured in the movie “Otoko wa Tsurai yo,” and savor the local specialty, kusa dango (mugwort rice dumplings).
Visit Yamamoto-tei, a spot beloved by photographers and garden enthusiasts. Marvel at the fusion of Japanese and Western architectural styles and the beautiful garden, consistently ranked among the top in American Japanese garden magazines. Enjoy matcha tea (at your own expense) while taking in the view.
Conclude your tour with a walk along the Edogawa River, where the traditional Yagiri no Watashi ferry has been operating since the Edo period. Enjoy the peaceful scenery, a stark contrast to the bustling city.
