Get your discount tickets for the Asakusa: Food replica store visits after history tour, save up to 9% !
Overview
Kappabashi Street adjacent to Asakusa is a shopping street lined with dozens of stores selling everything needed by restaurant operators. This is the only place in Tokyo where you can find stores specialized in Japanese food replicas. These unbelievably realistic food replicas look yummy, but you can't eat or drink them. International travelers have been intrigued by how delicious they look. If you also want to be one of them and bring your own back home to share the wonder with others, then this tour is for you. Our guide will take you to stores where you can find replicas you like most. They will help you look around and search by intermediating between yourself and the store clerks as an interpreter. The tour preceding the visit to the Japanese food replica stores is one of a kind; an in-depth history walk in Asakusa. By the end of the walk, you’ll have a clear, big-picture understanding of how Japan evolved from a closed feudal society into the country you see today.
