Tokyo in One Day: Shibuya & Asakusa — Guide Rumi

Title: What's a Private One-Day Tokyo Tour Like? A Licensed Guide's Report on Shibuya, Meiji Shrine, and Asakusa

The guests were a group visiting from North America. They often travel together. We first went to the Shibuya Crossing and the 6th floor of PARCO, which was as crowded as ever. Meiji Shrine has been getting more crowded with tourists as well, but we were blessed with good weather and enjoyed a pleasant walk. After strolling along Takeshita Street, we had lunch featuring rolled sushi. We had originally planned to have lunch at Tsukiji, but the rolled sushi seemed unusual to them and was well received. After that, we went around the Tsukiji Market and then headed to Asakusa, but since they had only arrived the day before and were tired, we walked around Senso-ji Temple once and then parted ways. A notable stop on the tour was Senso-ji Temple in Asakusa. Senso-ji is Tokyo's oldest temple, founded in the 7th century, and is one of the most visited religious sites in Japan. The approach to the temple, known as Nakamise-dori, is lined with shops selling traditional snacks and souvenirs, and the iconic Kaminarimon, or "Thunder Gate," with its massive red lantern, marks the entrance to the temple grounds.
