We went to Asakusa on 5 November.

On that day, many foreign students were walking around enjoying the sites at Asakusa, Senso-ji, Asakusa-jinja and Sky Tree while paying a visit to Taito City.

Later, we crossed over Asakusa Rokku and Kappabashi Street, and wandered up to Ueno station.

Finally, before heading home, we went to an izakaya (tavern) had a few drinks and celebrated a fine day in the city. Good job!!!

We joined the summer festival ‘a cool evening in old downtown’ held in the Edo-Tokyo Open-air Architectural Museum in Koganei Park, located five minutes by bus from Musashi Koganei Station.

At the old downtown area mall, which has been relocated and reconstructed, we took pictures with a figure dressed in a yukata; shopped at the stalls and watched the performance at the miniature children’s shrine .

We also savoured a performance by Japanese drums and danced in the Bon festival.

All in all, we enjoyed our time until summer dusk came upon us…
