What you can expect
After having a bird's eye view of Asakusa from an observation deck in Asakusa Culture Tourist Information Centre with a guide's explanation, we will take you to a Japanese izakaya restaurant for live performance of traditional Japanese musical instruments over dinner. There are many things you can enjoy over the course of this tour.
1) Asakusa Culture Tourist Information Centre
Sitting at the very heart of Asakusa, this 7-story building provides a vantage point to overview the Asakusa area and beyond. The guide will brief you on major points of interest as you see the panoramic view around yourself.
2) We will move on to the restaurant as we walk through the Sensoji-temple. You will see all the must-see spots in its precinct including Kaminarimon (thunder) gate, Nakamise shopping street, Hozomon (treasure) gate, and the main hall. Once outside the precinct, observe the nostalgic and quaint atmosphere of the Asakusa area inhabited by commoners during the Edo period.
3) As we arrive at the izakaya restaurant, the guide will explain about the music and instruments to be played in a short while.
4) And of course, enjoy the restaurant's friendly atmosphere and unassuming dishes loved by locals.
5) Your stay in the restaurant will reach a crescendo when the award-winning musicians begin their performance. Enjoy the powerful sound of shamisen up close and traditional folk songs sung to it.
