Tokyo Trip / 2013.10 / Asakusa / Sensou-ji
Here are the rest of the photos I took of Sensou-ji and Asakusa. Asakusa is the first place I have ever lodged in Tokyo back in 2003. I like how it has been changing quite slowly, although I think there are more rapid changes recently – to adapt to the increasing importance of the tourism industry. Though the main stretch of Nakamese is starting to feel more like a tourist trap, the rest of Asakusa is still feeling like the good old days. If you are willing to take a longer stroll around, you will find other interesting parts of Asakusa that have retained the traditional Japanese flavour.
