    Tokyo Arakawa-ku Minami-senju 2-34-5
    "A three-minute walk from JR Minami-Senju Station. This former execution site, in use from the Edo period through the early Meiji period, was counted among the three execution grounds along with the Suzugamori Execution Grounds and the Owada Execution Grounds. Today, the former execution grounds are a part of the grounds of the Jodo-sect Enmeiji Temple and a Jizo (Kshitigarbha) statue, called the Enmeiji Jizo and nicknamed the ""Beheading Jizo,"" is enshrined on the site. The gravesites of Mito Roushi (samurai), who was involved in the Sakuradamon Incident; and Yoshida Shoin, who was executed in the Ansei Purge, are also located here (although today only the gravestones remain). As scholar Sugita Genpaku, who conducted dissections on executed prisoners, also attended the executions held on the site, a memorial to his medical text the ""Kaitai shinsho"" has also been erected here."

    Tokyo Kita-ku Shimo 5

    静かだしのんびりと散歩をするのにぴったりな場所。特に好きなのは春から夏の土手の緑が鮮やかな時期で、水門の赤が映えて絵になる。近くに荒川知水資料館があるのでトイレや休憩（自販機あり）ができます。

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.
