(7 hours) Tokyo’s most popular Asakusa and Yanaka Tour

Asakusa is famous for Sensoji Temple with a gate that has a big red lantern. The temple's long approach has some 80 shops aligned on both sides. Asakusa is one of the rare spots of Tokyo where you can feel the atmosphere of the old Edo period. In Asakusa you can also see the Tokyo Skytree, the tallest self-standing tower in the world, stands next to Sumida River and Asahi Beer Brewery headquarters (accentuated by a gigantic golden object designed by Philippe Starck). Ueno is historical area and cultural center of Tokyo, home to a national park, museums, a zoo, and prestigious art & music universities. The National Western Art Museum is the only Le Corbusier designed building in Japan that is sole World Heritage site in Tokyo. Popular Yanaka's unrivaled attraction is the quaint atmosphere. Having survived the Great Kanto Earthquake and the 2nd World War, some pre-war era houses still remain. One of its high lights is Asakura Sculptor's Museum which houses the actual sculptor's studio.
