The crowd pushes me past Kaminarimon, toppling the old and new Tokyo

Travel through Edo style! Encounter old and new Tokyo under Kaminarimon⛩️**
Asakusa Temple's Kaminarimon, the starting point of Tokyo's thousand-year-old vibrant atmosphere! The giant vermilion lantern hanging high shocks you as you approach, while hundreds of traditional wind chimes softly ring at the eaves. Passing through the gate, Nakamise Shopping Street bustles with voices; amid the lively scene of Japanese sweets and beckoning cats, you suddenly look up to see the Skytree piercing the clouds—Edo charm and modern Tokyo collide thunderously at this moment! Seek a protective charm to hold this feeling of time and space intertwining in your palm.
