The itinerary begins in Asakusa, Tokyo's most traditional district. We will arrive at the “Kaminarimon” (thunder's door), which leads us to “Nakamise dori”, the long street lined with traditional shops that leads to the oldest Buddhist temple in Tokyo, the Sensoji, founded in the 8th century.

We will visit Sensoji, consult the oracle by drawing “omikuji” (fortune-telling slips), and also visit the adjacent Asakusa Shinto shrine. The guide will explain the relationship between Buddhism and Shinto in the history of Japan and also in people's daily lives.

After a tour of the neighborhood, we will take the subway to Akihabara, the mecca of electronics but also of manga and anime fans. In addition to visiting the old “Electric Town”, we will wander among the various shops in the area, coming across “maids”, girls dressed in “cosplay” style who work in the typical local “maid cafés”.
It is a shopping area where you can make various purchases, from electronics to Japanese watches to manga and “figures”.

Finally, we will move on to nearby Kanda where, if we wish, we can have lunch with excellent sushi at a reasonable price in an authentic local restaurant frequented only by locals.
