Nakamise-dori Street is a must-visit spot in Asakusa, Tokyo, where you can soak up the old-school charm of Japan. This historic shopping arcade, dating back to the 17th century, is lined with traditional shops selling souvenirs, street food, and snacks. Stroll past 90 stalls offering everything from samurai swords to matcha ice cream, and don't miss trying local treats like ningyoyaki cakes and freshly toasted sembei crackers and unique things like unagi rice balls, sweet potato ice cream, tempura, kakiage and more! And the painted shutters and lit-up temple at night add an extra touch of magic to your visit!
