Experience Location
Yanaka Ginza is a district of northern Tokyo where the past and the present blend together. Having survived the bombings of World War II and the Great Kanto Earthquake and Fire of 1923, Yanaka Ginza is one of the most well-preserved old town districts in Tokyo. With a history of producing artists and artisans, the area has a creative atmosphere. Some of the buildings in Yanaka Ginza are over 100 years old while others have since been turned into art galleries and shops. With quiet winding streets and hidden shrines, Yanaka Ginza produces traditional crafts and plenty of exceptional local food.
