Overview
Asakusa is one of Japan's most popular tourist destinations. It's home to many historic temples and shrines which people gather in and around for a variety of events held throughout the year. A summer prayer service that harnesses the power of heat. A street fair where plant vendors showcase their pride and joy. A special ceremony to mark the opening of a miniature Mt. Fuji. These are just some of the traditions local residents have kept alive for generations. Join us as we dive into Asakusa!
