Your Tokyo Walking Tour, from Temple Gate to Train Terminal

  1. 1

    Senso-ji Temple

    Senso-ji Temple in Tokyo, stop 1 on the self-guided walking tour

    You're standing at Tokyo's oldest-established temple, dedicated to Kannon, the bodhisattva of compassion; locals also call it Asakusa Kannon. Around you are the main hall, a five-story pagoda and the great gates, and with over 30 million visitors a year it counts as the most widely visited religious site in the world. Entry is free, so take your time in the main hall and around the pagoda.

    The founding story starts on the water. In 628, the legend goes, two fishermen, the brothers Hinokuma Hamanari and Takenari, pulled a statue of Kannon out of the Sumida River in their net. Their village headman, Haji no Nakatomo, was so moved that he became a monk and turned his own home into a temple.

    Here's the twist: no visitor has seen that statue. In 645 a monk named Katsumi, following a revelation in a dream, declared it a hibutsu, a secret image. It is said to be golden and only about 5.5 centimetres tall, but because it is never shown, nobody outside knows for sure. In the early Heian period the monk Ennin carved a stand-in Kannon so that people had something to pray before. In 942 Taira no Kinmasa rebuilt the temple complex, and the Kaminarimon and Niōmon gates date back to his time.

    Much of what you see is younger than it looks. The firebombing of 10 March 1945 destroyed the temple, and the main hall was rebuilt in the 1950s. Once linked to the Tendai sect, Senso-ji became independent in 1950. It is also the 13th stop on the Bandō pilgrimage route, and right next door to the east stands Asakusa Shrine, a Shinto shrine.

    From the main hall, walk back out through the Hōzō-mon gate, where Nakamise Shopping Street begins. It's 150 m, about two minutes.

    Nakamise Shopping Street

    Nakamise Shopping Street in Tokyo, stop 2 on the self-guided walking tour

    Nakamise runs dead straight for about 300 m between the Hōzō-mon gate at the temple end and the Kaminarimon gate in the south, and you're walking it the way pilgrims leave. Both sides are lined with matching two-storey shop buildings, 87 shops in all, 52 on the east side and 35 on the west. Snacks and souvenirs dominate, and the shops are owner-run, some by the same family for generations.

    Look at the shutters. In 1992 the painter Ikuo Hirayama decorated them with landscapes, festivals and historical scenes, so if you pass when the shops are closed, the whole street becomes a row of paintings.

    Nakamise counts among Japan's oldest shopping streets. Its trade goes back to a privilege granted in 1735 (some say 1688): the people who cleaned the temple grounds were allowed to run stalls on the grounds and along the road to the temple. Over time the stalls multiplied, selling mostly sweets, souvenirs and toys.

    Then came a run of losses. In the Meiji era the street lost its privileges. In May 1885 all the stalls were ordered out, and Western-style brick buildings opened in their place that December. The Great Kantō earthquake of 1923 destroyed them; the replacements went up quickly in reinforced concrete painted vermilion. Those burned out in 1945 and were again restored fast.

    Browsing costs nothing. At the Kaminarimon end, keep going 390 m, about five minutes, to Azuma Bridge over the Sumida, the same river where the Kannon statue is said to have been found.

    Azuma Bridge

    Azuma Bridge in Tokyo, stop 3 on the self-guided walking tour

    This bright red steel arch crosses the Sumida and links the Kaminarimon district in Taitō with Azumabashi in Sumida ward. On the east bank rises the headquarters of the Asahi Group. The bridge you're on opened in June 1931 as part of the rebuilding after the Great Kantō earthquake: 150.1 m long and 20 m wide. Planners had briefly considered making it only 14.5 m wide.

    The first bridge here went up in 1774, paid for by six private citizens: 142 m long and just 5.9 m wide. Its old name was Higashibashi, the East Bridge, because it carried the road from Edo to the east. In June 1876 a Western-style wooden bridge replaced it, and the present name stuck.

    Rough years followed. In July 1885 a storm smashed a bridge upstream, and its wreckage slammed into this one. In December 1887 a wrought-iron bridge took over, 148.8 m long and 11.9 m wide, the first bridge on the Sumida not made of wood. It couldn't keep up with growing traffic, though. In the 1923 earthquake the iron held, but the wooden decking burned, and the bridge was patched with timber until today's arch replaced it.

    For decades the bridge was grey. A renovation finished in 1992 gave it the red you see now, and since August 2020 it has new lighting.

    Now comes the longest stretch so far: 2,670 m, about 39 minutes, to the Tokyo National Museum in Ueno Park.

    Tokyo National Museum

    Tokyo National Museum, stop 4 on the self-guided walking tour

    You've reached what counts as Japan's oldest national museum and its largest art museum. It collects art and cultural objects from across Asia, with a focus on ancient and medieval Japanese art and art along the Silk Road, plus a large collection of Greco-Buddhist art. The museum grounds also hold outdoor exhibits, including the Kuromon gate, a garden with seasonal views, restaurants and shops.

    The numbers are staggering. As of April 2023 it held around 120,000 cultural properties, including 89 National Treasures and 649 Important Cultural Properties. That's roughly 10% of all the art and craft works Japan has named National Treasures. Only about 3,000 objects are on show at once, and they rotate every few weeks, so no two visits are quite the same.

    The collection is spread across several buildings. The Honkan holds the Japanese Gallery, the Toyokan the Asian Gallery, and the Heiseikan and Hyokeikan host special exhibitions. The Gallery of Horyuji Treasures shows relics that were once kept at Horyu Temple in Nara, and the Kuroda Memorial Hall is devoted to the painter Kuroda Seiki. The museum is one of four national museums, alongside those in Kyoto, Nara and Kyushu.

    Is it worth the admission? If Japanese art interests you even a little, yes: this is the one paid stop that can fill a whole afternoon. If you're short on time or energy, enjoy the grounds and keep walking.

    Ueno Toshogu Shrine is 820 m away, about 11 minutes, also inside Ueno Park.

    Ueno Toshogu Shrine

    Ueno Toshogu Shrine in Tokyo, stop 5 on the self-guided walking tour

    Most of old Tokyo burned or fell at some point. This shrine didn't. First set up in 1627 by Tōdō Takatora and rebuilt in 1651 by the third shogun, Tokugawa Iemitsu, it has stayed largely intact ever since, through earthquakes, fires and wars, including the Battle of Ueno in 1868 and the Great Kantō earthquake of 1923. That makes it a rare surviving piece of Edo-period Shinto architecture, and several structures are Important Cultural Properties.

    Like every Tōshō-gū, it enshrines Tokugawa Ieyasu, founder of the shogunate that ruled Japan from the Battle of Sekigahara in 1600 until the Meiji Restoration in 1868, under the name Tōshō Daigongen. Two later shoguns are enshrined here too: Tokugawa Yoshimune and Tokugawa Yoshinobu, the last of them all. Iemitsu, Ieyasu's grandson, rebuilt the main hall in the gongen-zukuri style. Until 1868 the shrine belonged to the Buddhist temple Kan'ei-ji.

    Look for the karamon, the Chinese gate from 1651 with its curved gable, also an Important Cultural Property. Two carved dragons decorate its pillars, the Ascending Dragon and the Descending Dragon. Legend says that every night they slip off to nearby Shinobazu Pond to drink. The carvings are credited to Hidari Jingorō, a master carver who may never have existed.

    The grounds are free; the special viewing costs extra and suits anyone keen on Edo craftsmanship.

    From here it's 2,060 m, about 30 minutes, to Kanda Myojin Shrine.

    Kanda Myojin Shrine

    Kanda Myojin Shrine in Tokyo, stop 6 on the self-guided walking tour

    Pass through the Zuishin-mon, the two-storey main gate, rebuilt in 1995 in cypress wood with an irimoya roof. The shrine behind it is built in gongen-zukuri, the same style you just saw at Ueno Toshogu Shrine.

    Kanda Myojin has moved house twice. It was founded in 730 in the fishing village of Shibasaki, near today's Ōtemachi. In 1603 it had to make way for the growing Edo Castle and moved to the old Kanda ward, then in 1616 to this small hill near Akihabara. Warriors and townspeople alike held it dear, especially in the Edo period, and Tokugawa Ieyasu himself paid his respects here.

    The buildings have been rebuilt many times. The 1923 earthquake destroyed the main structure, and in 1934 it went up again in concrete, which is why it survived the firebombing of World War II when so many historic buildings didn't. Restoration work continues today. In December 2018 the EDOCCO Edo Culture Complex opened beside the shrine, on the spot of an older side building.

    Here's the modern twist: Akihabara is next door, and the shrine has become a magnet for tech fans. It even sells talismans to protect electronic devices from harm. Have a look at them before you go. The grounds are free, and the small museum keeps its own opening days.

    Down the hill it's 810 m, about 11 minutes, to Radio Kaikan in the heart of Akihabara.

    Radio Kaikan

    Radio Kaikan in Tokyo, stop 7 on the self-guided walking tour

    Radio Kaikan is one of Akihabara's best-known landmarks. Today's building opened in July 2014: 46.5 m high, ten floors above ground and two below, packed mostly with shops selling otaku goods. Browsing is free, and an hour can vanish fast among figures, cards and collectibles.

    The story begins with the original building from November 1962, eight floors high and the first high-rise in Akihabara. It quickly filled with shops selling electronic components and parts, back when that was what Akihabara was all about.

    Then the 7th floor made history. In September 1976 NEC opened its Bit-INN Tokyo support centre there to sell the TK-80 microcomputer kit. Sales blew past expectations, and the Bit-INN became a meeting place for hobbyists and engineers. That's why the floor is called the birthplace of Japan's personal computer industry. A franchise of the American Byte Shop sat on the same floor. Among the regulars were people who later shaped Japanese IT, including SoftBank founder Masayoshi Son and Makoto Naruke, later president of Microsoft Japan.

    After the microcomputer era, otaku shops moved in as that culture took hold in Akihabara. In 2010 worries about the ageing structure grew, the old building closed in August 2011 and was torn down, and the new one followed.

    Next comes a longer stretch: 1,700 m, about 25 minutes, to Nihonbashi Bridge.

    Nihonbashi Bridge

    Nihonbashi Bridge in Tokyo, stop 8 on the self-guided walking tour

    This is where Japan's roads begin. Look at the middle of the bridge for the Japan Road Origin Marker set into the roadway; the old Tokyo City marker, which once also held up tram wires, was moved in 1972 to a small plaza at the northwest corner of the bridge. Since the Edo period Nihonbashi was the starting point of the Tōkaidō, and since 2005 it has also been the start of Asian Highway 1, which runs all the way to the borders of Turkey and Bulgaria.

    The first bridge here was a wooden arched bridge built in 1603, when Ieyasu laid out the new streets of Edo. One story says people from all over Japan came to build it, hence the name, Japan Bridge; another says it simply had no name and everyone ended up calling it the same thing. By 1604 the Five Routes started here. Edo burned often, and so did the bridge: ten times by the end of the shogunate, starting with the great Meireki fire of 1657, rebuilt every time.

    The stone bridge you see opened on 3 April 1911, the 20th generation. On opening day the crowds were so thick that people were injured. It's 49 m long and 28 m wide, with two stone arches; all the decoration is bronze, and the lamp pillars at the centre and at the four corners carry statues of kirin, the mythical beasts. Look closely and you'll find scorch marks from the air raid of 10 March 1945.

    Since 1963 the Shuto expressway has run directly overhead, which takes some getting used to. In 1999 the bridge was named an Important Cultural Property. It's free and open at any hour.

    From here it's 2,710 m, about 39 minutes, to the Imperial Palace East Gardens.

    Imperial Palace East Gardens

    Imperial Palace East Gardens in Tokyo, stop 9 on the self-guided walking tour

    You're walking on the grounds of Edo Castle, seat of the Tokugawa shoguns. The Ōte-mon was the castle's main gate, used by the feudal lords who came to stay at the castle under the shogunate's system of alternating attendance. The garden areas still carry their military names: Honmaru, Ninomaru and Sannomaru, the inner, second and third circles of defence.

    Head for the Honmaru. Here you'll find the remains of the castle's main tower, along with lawns, trees and flowers. This was the most lavish part of the castle and the shogun's main residence, destroyed in 1657 and again in 1863. The palace here was a single storey and included the Ōoku, the women's quarters where consorts and concubines lived.

    After the shoguns came the emperors. Emperor Meiji lived in the nearby Nishinomaru palace for four years from 1869. The Suwa-no-chaya tea house dates from 1912. Work on the modern gardens began in 1961, and they opened on 1 October 1968; today they cover more than 210,000 square metres. The Toukagakudo concert hall and the Sannomaru Shozokan, the Museum of the Imperial Collections, also stand inside.

    Entry is free, which makes this one of the best value stops of the day. The gardens close when needed for court purposes and keep set opening days, so check before you build your afternoon around them. An hour lets you see the castle remains without rushing.

    Nijubashi Bridge is 2,500 m away, about 33 minutes.

    Nijubashi Bridge

    Nijubashi Bridge in Tokyo, stop 10 on the self-guided walking tour

    In front of you are two bridges, and which one is the real Nijubashi is a classic Tokyo puzzle. The nearer one is a granite double-arch bridge from 1887, nicknamed Megane-bashi, the spectacles bridge, and most people take it for Nijubashi. Strictly speaking, though, the name belongs to the iron bridge behind it, the Seimon Tetsubashi, which leads from the main gate towards the palace.

    The name means double bridge, and it comes from the wooden bridge that once stood where the iron one is. The moat was so deep that piers were hard to build, so the girders were stacked in two layers for strength. In 1888 an iron bridge designed by the German Wilhelm Heise and cast in Germany replaced it, no longer double, and in 1964 it was rebuilt to the same design. Today the word usually covers both bridges, and you'll even see road signs spelled Nijyubashi.

    Normally you can't cross. Imperial guards stand at the main gate, which opens only for special events such as enthronements, imperial funerals and state visits. Visitors on a pre-arranged palace tour may cross the iron bridge, and at the New Year and the Emperor's Birthday greetings the gate is opened to the public. During the New Year greeting of 1954, a crush on the stone bridge killed 16 people.

    Viewing from outside is free and takes ten minutes. Then it's 1,450 m, about 20 minutes, to the finish at Tokyo Station.

    Tokyo Station

    Tokyo Station, stop 11 on the self-guided walking tour

    You've made it. Tokyo Station opened in 1914 as a single terminus for the lines that had each had their own Tokyo terminal, and the original building stands on the Marunouchi side, near the palace grounds. The station is so big that signs divide it into the Marunouchi side in the west and the Yaesu side in the east.

    Its history mirrors the city's. On 25 May 1945 bombing badly damaged the station, but trains were soon running again. In 1964 the Tōkaidō Shinkansen opened from here, the world's first dedicated high-speed railway. Since 1991, when the northbound Shinkansen lines were extended from Ueno, the station has also been the gateway to northeast Japan.

    The scale is hard to grasp: more than 4,000 trains arrive and depart every day, more than at any other station in Japan, and over 500,000 people pass through daily. Step back on the Marunouchi side for a look at the historic front, then let the crowds carry you inside. From Senso-ji's legend of a fisherman's catch to this rail hub, you've walked through fourteen centuries of the city.

Shorter Ways to Walk Tokyo

Fifteen kilometres is a lot for one day. These cuts follow the same order and work well on their own.

Asakusa and Ueno

Stops: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5

For a morning of temples, bridge and art. Walking time is 57 min over about 4 km, most of it on the leg from Azuma Bridge to the museum. The Tokyo National Museum charges admission, and the special viewing at Ueno Toshogu Shrine is extra; everything else is free.

Kanda to Tokyo Station

Stops: 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11

For anyone interested in Edo's old centre, Akihabara and the palace. Walking time is 2 h 8 min over about 9.2 km. Every stop on this stretch is free, so it suits a day on a tight budget.

Asakusa only

Stops: 1, 2, 3

For a short first taste of Tokyo or an arrival day. Just 7 min of walking between temple, shopping street and river, and all three stops are free.

How Long Does This Tokyo Tour Take with Museum and Gardens?

The full route covers 15.3 km with a pure walking time of 3 h 36 min. The two longest legs are the 39 minutes from Azuma Bridge to the Tokyo National Museum and the 39 minutes from Nihonbashi Bridge to the Imperial Palace East Gardens, so pace yourself in the morning.

Add a proper look around Senso-ji, ninety minutes in the museum, half an hour each at Ueno Toshogu Shrine and Radio Kaikan and an hour in the East Gardens, plus short pauses at the bridges and at Kanda Myojin, and you're at a little over nine hours before any meal breaks. Asakusa and Ueno alone take about four hours with the museum; Kanda to Tokyo Station takes about four and a half hours; Asakusa only fits into an hour and a half.

Before You Set Off from Asakusa

  • Start: The recommended start is Senso-ji Temple in Asakusa, but you can join the route at any stop and pick up the order from there.
  • Finish: The walk ends at Tokyo Station, the city's main hub for intercity trains, so getting back to your hotel or onward is easy.
  • Time of day: Start in the morning. The full route is a day's work, and the earlier you set off, the more time you keep for the museum and the East Gardens in the afternoon.
  • Admission: The Tokyo National Museum charges admission, and the special viewing at Ueno Toshogu Shrine costs extra. The temple, the shrines' grounds, the bridges, the gardens and the station are free.
