    Sensoji is one of the few places in Tokyo where you can still really feel that classic Japanese vibe.
    As soon as you walk through Kaminarimon, the scent of incense and the sound of the crowds make it feel like time slows down.
    You’ll see lots of girls in kimono taking photos—it looks beautiful and the atmosphere is great.
    Whether it’s morning or night, Sensoji is a spot where you can just stroll around and soak it all in quietly.

    Walked from Kaminarimon through Nakamise Street to visit Sensoji Temple! Even on weekdays, it's crowded during the day, but at night, the atmosphere totally changes and feels magical. Apparently, the chance of getting a 'bad luck' fortune here is higher than at other shrines—about 30%—because they follow the traditional ratio from the Heian period. I've drawn both bad and great fortunes here myself. Definitely try drawing a fortune, and if you get a bad one, tie it to the stick!

    If you come to Asakusa, you have to try the ramen! There's a place called Yoroiya Ramen that gets great reviews online. Their signature yuzu soy sauce ramen and gyoza are my favorites. The broth is made from chicken and pork bones, two kinds of dried fish, and kelp, making it super rich with a hint of yuzu aroma. Plus, the double-yolk egg is amazing—absolutely top-notch!
