Asakusa is a part of Tokyo that has very old buildings and an interesting history. We took so many cool photos of gates, shrines and temples. We walked through the markets and saw all these beautiful ornaments and cool souvenir things you can buy a memento of having been to Asakusa. It was a really pleasant day walking around and seeing all the cool sights.
At night, we decided to go somewhere different for tea. We got on a train and made our way to Ginza. Ginza is like the Beverley Hills of Tokyo.
It is so rich and posh and up-market and beautiful! We walked straight into a shopping complex from the train station and no kidding, every single person that was in this complex was dressed to the nines. They had their name brand coats and dresses and shoes on and all the men were in neat suits. Then there was us! Grubby, scrubby us! We felt a little out of place in this shopping centre, but we enjoyed looking at how nice everyone looked around us. We went for a walk down the main street and it was so clean and neat. There was absolutely no rubbish on the footpaths and it looked like a million dollars – well it probably cost way more to make it look that good! You get the gist of what I’m saying!
Every shop was lit up with neon lights and looked so cool. We couldn’t help but just stare in awe of what we saw around us. It was just awesome!
We looked for somewhere that wasn’t too out of our price range to go for dinner. We finally found this cute little place that looked kinda like a pub. I had a yummy pizza and it didn’t cost too much! It was a very enjoyable day and evening.
