Route D: Route F half

“Half-day tour around Fukagawa, a downtown full of Edo atomosphere”

Highlights

The first half day tour route we made for family with small children or people who visit Tokyo only for short time. This route goes to less busy area at the east of Sumida river.

  • Kiyosumi Garden, a traditional Japanese style garden with pond at the center of the garden, where you will see many birds, Koi carp and turtles
  • Fukagawa Edo Museum, a history museum we can see how local people lived in the middle of 1800’s in Edo
  • Tomioka Hachimangu Shrine where Sumo was used to be held

…and more!
