Tokyo Sky Tree & Asakusa
Asakusa (ah-saku-sah) is home to Tokyo's oldest attraction, the centuries-
old temple Sensō-ji. Just across the river is the city's newest: the 634m tall
Tokyo Sky Tree. The neighbourhoods surrounding these sights are known
as
shitamachi
(the low city), where the spirit of old Edo (Tokyo under the
shōgun) proudly lives on in an atmospheric web of alleys, artisan shops
and mum-and-dad restaurants.
