Asakusa : Senso-ji temple

Meiji-jingu Shrine
The Meiji-jingu Shrine is located in the middle of a forest. It is a small haven of peace in the middle of Tokyo. The souls of Emperor Meiji and his wife rest there in peace. We will discover how to wash our hands in the Temizuya and say a Shinto prayer. We will then be able to write a wish on an Ema tablet and draw a special Omikuji to meditate on.
Takeshita Street
Takeshita Street is known for being the birthplace of new Japanese fashion trends. It is the epicenter of Tokyo's youthful and colorful culture. It is full of street food like multi-colored cotton candy or potato spirals. You can also pet animals, sip bubble tea and try to win the gachapon of your dreams.

Shibuya is the largest entertainment and shopping district in the capital. It is the meeting place for young people. The famous Shibuya scramble is the busiest pedestrian crossing in the world. I will tell you the story of Hachi the loyal dog and take you up to visit the viewpoints from where you can photograph the famous crossing.
