Tokyo - Tourist Mode

During the same weekend, I visited Asakusa and Sensō-ji for the first time!

^the snazzy Asakusa visitor center

So the place was packed. Multiple tour buses were dropping folks off.

^Beyond the Kaminarimon is Nakamise-dori with its shops

Some folks even looked bored, but check out those gloves and shades, yo.

^and the hat.
^^AND THE COUPLE'S MATCHING SHIRTS!!!

A side street away from the mess... the market was overwhelming...


Hōzōmon


It appears I didn't get a photo of Hondō (the main hall)... so this unidentified cluster of things will have to do!


Looking up in the Tsukubai


The street behind the shops was a much better way to get back to the station!



I then went back to Meiji Jingū

Why don't breweries dress up their kegs?


The lovely Kakuuntei Teahouse
