    Asakusa

    Hoppy Street. The Asakusa area, famous for Senso-ji Temple and the Kaminarimon Gate, is a popular drinking area for many Japanese people. For more than 100 years, the Asakusa area was one of Tokyo's leading entertainment districts, known for its lively atmosphere of theaters and taverns. Although Asakusa and the rest of Tokyo were severely damaged by earthquakes and the war, Asakusa has revived as an entertainment district time and again from the rubble caused by these disasters. Today, the bustle of the area is the same as it has been for a century. The downtown and popular alcohol culture, including a special alcoholic beverage called “hoppy,” was born here and spread to other parts of Japan. In this tour, you will visit Asakusa's entertainment district with a professional guide who knows the local area well, and visit two bars of interest to you. Even if you do not speak Japanese, you can enjoy a night out in Asakusa on this safe tour.
