Tokyo | Hidden Gem Downtown Citywalk Route ๐
On Sunday, I planned this route while asking locals, and came up with a unique Tokyo downtown adventure! ๐บ๏ธ 1. Fukaigawa Fudo-do Tokyo Annex Homagyo Fire Festival โ A must-see traditional blessing ceremony! Starting at 9 a.m., the "Goma Fire" performance every two hours is truly breathtaking. The flames and chanting create a powerful atmosphere, offering a glimpse into the purifying power of Japanese Esoteric Buddhism. ๐ 2. Tomioka Hachiman Shrine (Sunday Only) โ On Sundays, visit the antique market to find unique treasures. Enjoy traditional Kagura dance or sumo performances, and pick up a limited-edition Hello Kitty charm for good fortuneโa perfect blend of tradition and modernity! ๐ 3. Vintage Cafรฉ (Toa Coffee) โ The pioneer of Showa-style cafes! Order a pour-over coffee and their signature tamago-yaki sandwich. The wooden bar and retro chandeliers transport you back to Tokyo's slow-paced 1960s. ๐ต #DowntownTokyo #Citywalk ๐๐
