Asakusa: A town where history and modernity intertwine.
Asakusa is a representative Tokyo neighborhood where the atmosphere of Edo (old Tokyo) and the vibrancy of modern times coexist.
At its heart lies Senso-ji Temple, the oldest temple in Tokyo, boasting a history of approximately 1,400 years.
The vermilion-painted "Nitenmon" gate, which guards the east, was built in 1649 and got its name from the two guardian deity statues enshrined on either side of it.
During the day, the temple is bustling with visitors, and at night, the temple buildings are illuminated, while the Tokyo Skytree adds a touch of color to the night sky.
