About
This walking tour invites you to explore the quiet heart of Tokyo, in Yanaka and Nezu — neighborhoods where time slows down. Wander past wooden houses, local temples, and family-run shops, and see how tradition and everyday life still blend naturally here.
Rather than famous sights, you’ll discover how Tokyoites find beauty in narrow lanes, seasonal rituals, and small daily gestures — a living expression of Japan’s spirit that endures in Yanaka and Nezu.
