Hidden sights in Tokyo｜ Katsushika Ward with a strong flavor of the Showa era

Today I plan to take a look at the birthplace of the anime Oolong Police Station, Katsushika Ward, Shitamachi Old Street, Tokyo.

In addition to various bronze statues of Ryotsu Kankichi to check in, there is also an old street full of Showa atmosphere - Teishakuten Sando Shopping Street, which has a variety of souvenirs, including Kame family’s dango (pictured) 6) 🍡Even Japanese people come here to buy it, which of course attracts me. The red beans are not too sweet, and they are a perfect match for the dumplings! Remember to try it🩷🩷

After visiting the old streets, you can also stop by Shakten Temple to pray for peace. I feel that this trip is very suitable for elders.

📍Shibamata Station (Shibamata Station)
Take JR and get off at "Shibamata Station". As soon as you exit the station, there is a statue of the protagonist of the movie "The Story of Torajiro".
🧷 Shibamata Toy Museum: There are many retro snacks on the first floor, and there is a toy exhibition hall with tickets on the second floor, 200JPY/person. The photo in front of the door is really great. I really like this Japanese retro style. It seems like I have traveled through time.
Just like in Showa movies
🧷The pilgrimage route to Emperor Shakten: a retro old street with some old shops and restaurants on both sides, selling all kinds of handicraft souvenirs, and the old tall wooden house shop that was the prototype of the movie "The Story of Torajiro". The retro buildings are well-organized and well-organized. visit
