The annual festival at Asakusa Shrine is a huge event. There were so many mikoshi (portable shrines), and the atmosphere was super lively.

This place really has a local vibe. It doesn't feel as commercialized as the big cities.

So classy... The Japanese really know what they're doing 🤣
But honestly, it's just so good, I have to give it a thumbs up!!!
Best Japanese souvenir, hands down. -

This is the temple where Hijikata Toshizo from the Shinsengumi is buried, and you can see hydrangeas here in early summer.
There aren't many tourists, so it's nice and quiet for a stroll inside the temple.
It seems like this shrine is known for traffic safety blessings.
Also, you have to try the dango from the shops along the approach! 🍡 -
