Il programma nel dettaglio
Our first stop is Meiji Shrine (Meiji Jingu), a shrine dedicated to the deified spirits of Emperor Meiji and his consort, Empress Shoken. The shrine was completed in 1920, and through the southern and northern path to the shrine meet you'll find the symbol of Meiji Jingu: the torii.
Following that you will visit the Tokyo Imperial Palace (Kokyo). It is the primary residence of the Emperor of Japan, consisting of a large park-like area located in the Chiyoda ward of Tokyo. It contains buildings including the main palace, the private residences of the Imperial Family, an archive, museums, and administrative offices.
The next stop is Sensoji, the ancient Buddhist temple located in Asakusa. It is Tokyo's oldest and one of its most significant temples. Adjacent to the temple is a 5-story pagoda called the Asakusa Shinto Shrine. The Kaminarimon is the outer of two large entrance gates that ultimately lead to the SensÅ-ji in Asakusa. The gate, with its lantern and statues, is hugely popular with tourists.
After visiting Sensoji, we continue to Nakamise-dori, in Asakusa. It is a street which leads to the temple that is approximately 250 meters in length and contains around 89 shops and restaurants.
Your tour will conclude there in the Nakamise-dori street.
