What to do and see in Tokyo, Kanto: The Best Concerts & Shows

July 6, 2021 Malia Yoakum

Tradition collides with pop culture in Tokyo, where you can reverently wander ancient temples before rocking out at a karaoke bar. Wake up before the sun to catch the lively fish auction at the Tsukiji Market, then refresh with a walk beneath the cherry blossom trees that line the Sumida River. Spend some time in the beautiful East Gardens of the Imperial Palace, then brush up on your Japanese history at the Edo-Tokyo Museum. Don’t forget to eat as much sushi, udon noodles, and wagashi (Japanese sweets) as your belly can handle.

I learn for a history of "Asakusa" that is the entertainment birthplace and perform traditional succession and upbringing, creation and alternating current of the new sense of values through entertainment. "The Asakusa flower theater" is a total of 1,362 square meters in area, 4 stories.

The tickets are available over the counter half an hour before the play which spares all the hassle with prebooking. The theatre itself is impressive and the play worth seeing even for non Japanese speakers. The costumes from Edo period look like a fairytale, it was also suprising to hear the music and voices during the play. You can use Enhlish transcripts.
