Tokyo Koutou-ku Kiyosumi 2 and 3-chome

This Japanese garden is located in Tokyo’s Koto City. A part of the land is known for the ruins of the mansion of the wealthy merchant Kinokuniya Bunzaemon and is a strolling garden with karesansui (dry gardens) and artificial hills. The premises on the west side of the garden feature an open garden that is a popular hanami, or cherry blossom-viewing, spot in spring. It is one of the Palaces of Scenic Beauty in Tokyo, where irises blossom in June.

A great strolling garden. Today was a sunny Winter’s day. Lots of wildlife including herons, ducks and sun-baking turtles. As a bonus it includes a monument to the great Haiku poet Basho.

Tokyo Koutou-ku Tomioka 1-17-13

The Tokyo branch temple of the Buddhist Daihonzan Naritasan Shinshoji Temple in Narita City, Chiba Prefecture. Since ancient times, this temple has been popularly known by the honorific nickname “Fukagawa no o-Fudou-sama.” The temple’s principle object of worship is a figure of Acala which is believed by many to ward away evil. With the submission of the proper application form to the temple office, anyone may attend the temple’s goma ceremony in which cedar wood is burned before the statue of Acala in prayer for a blessing. Visitors may also participate in traditional sutra copying and Buddhist imagery tracing.

This was a truly amazing experience. We were the only non-locals which made it an authentic experience with the locals engaging in the ritual fire ceremony.

Tokyo Koutou-ku Tomioka 1-20-3

This shrine located in the Tomioka district of Tokyo’s Koto City is affectionately known as the “Hachiman-sama of Fukagawa” and was established in 1624. The shrine attracted religious faith from the commoners as a tutelary shrine under the Tokugawa shogun family, and every year around August 15th the Fukagawa Hachiman Matsuri (Fukagawa Matsuri) procession is held which is said to be one of the three largest festivals of Edo, boasting Japan’s largest ichi-no-miya mikoshi (portable shrine). It is also famous as the birthplace of Edo’s Kanjin-zumo, and there are many stone monuments on the premises such as the Yokozuna Stone, a stone monument to commend successive yokozuna sumo wrestlers.

Interesting flea market held at the temple on Sunday mornings. As you might expect, lots of Japanese arts and crafts. Prices seemed reasonable. Worth combining with a visit to the nearby Fukugawa...

Tokyo Koto-ku Kiba 45 , Hirano 4

A five-minute walk from Kiba Station on the Tokyo Metro Tozai Line. Opened in 1969 as a forest park filled with waterside areas and greenery, in 1977 it was dedicated a memorial park in honor of the 50th anniversary of the enthronement of Emperor Showa. Divided into south, central, and north sections, the areas are connected by the symbol of the park, the Kiba Park Bridge. The park is filled with things to see and do, and visitors can go on a picnic on its vast grass lawn or enjoy one of the many events held in the park's event venue. The north section has an adventure square where children can play on a large playground or splash around in a specially designed manmade shallow pond. The park also has a barbecue ground.

This is a surprisingly large park with tracks and places to exercise. It has a weird—obviously graft— giant foot bridge linking the two halves.

Tokyo Koutou-ku Fukagawa 2-16-3

A Buddhist temple standing along Metropolitan Road 463 in 2 Chome, Fukagawa, Koto City. The temple's seated figure of King Yama, judge of the afterlife, is 3.5 meters tall and weighs 1.5 tons, making it the largest in Japan. Some of the temple's many other highlights include 16 paintings created in 1784 depicting heaven and hell on display in the main temple, and a stone bearing the footprint of Soga Goro, a historical figure famously depicted in the popular kabuki play known as the Soga Monogatari.

This is a lovely Budist temple with people worshipping through the day. Its calm even though its on the main road. Worth a quick visit

Tokyo Koutou-ku Fukuzumi 2-7-21

You can spot this bakery in the middle of a residential area by the little round birds on the curtain covering the entryway. The cozy shop has a wide variety of freshly baked bread and sweets, as well as lots of spreads like jam and honey. Most of their baked items cost less than 500 yen for three.

Tokyo Areas

The setting of countless iconic movie scenes and the inspiration for songs, poetry, and literature worldwide, Tokyo barely requires an introduction. It’s hard for the kaleidoscopic neon lights, wacky pop culture, and some of the world’s tallest structures not to instill excitement in any first-time visitor to Tokyo, whether you’re in the very center of the hustle and bustle in Shinjuku or Shibuya or looking in from the quieter suburbs.
