Yanaka - Stroll around local charming town with local people's life.
Lovely local old town with people's ordinal life. Tokyo was heavily damaged during World War Ⅱ. Yanaka, also called Yanesen, survived from air raids. That's how this area retains old atmosphere with small alleys, old style houses.
Also known as temple town and cat town. Having been loved by artisans, lots of small galleries and cosy shops can be enjoyed in the area. "Strolling around" is the way to explore this charming town.
OPTION : Tea Ceremony at Antique shop
End at your convenience
We can end the tour nearby staton for your own time. Or I can take you back to your hotel if you prefer.
