I experienced the same entertainment as ancient Japanese nobles in Tokyo.

The warm spring sunshine🔆 is here, and it's the perfect season to see cherry blossoms🌸 in Japan. In addition to Osaka and Kyoto, the bustling metropolis of Tokyo☘️ also has beautiful cherry blossoms. This year, I discovered✅ Japanese Yakatabune. Seeing Tokyo from a different perspective, you can enjoy cherry blossoms and night views, just like the ancient Japanese nobles. It feels amazing!👍🏻 📚Long History: The earliest Japanese Yakatabune can be traced back to the Heian period🔺 in Japan, which has a history of more than a thousand years.👍🏻 It reached its peak in the Edo period🔺 and became an entertainment tool for the aristocracy to enjoy flowers🌸 and scenery. The boats were usually decorated with gorgeous🌈 ornaments, showing extreme luxury. Today, Yakatabune, as a symbol of traditional Japanese culture,📚 has once again entered the public eye. Imagine experiencing the same entertainment as Japanese nobles from a thousand years ago!😆 It's very attractive! 🗺️Tour Route: Board at Tsuribune Pier➡️Proceed along the Sumida River➡️Toyosu Bridge➡️Rainbow Bridge➡️Odaiba➡️Return along the Sumida River➡️Enjoy Tokyo Skytree at Kototoi Bridge➡️Return to Tsuribune Pier 🌃Glittering Night View: Take the Asakusa Yakatabune to enjoy the urban scenery of Tokyo from the water.🏙️ Not only can you see Tokyo Tower and Skytree, but you can also see many landmark buildings. Be sure to take photos on the deck. In spring, you can also enjoy cherry blossoms🌸 while on board. The bustling city seems even more charming🌈 against the backdrop of pink cherry blossoms. It is worth mentioning that the night view of Tokyo from the Yakatabune is breathtaking.🌃 The high-rise buildings along the banks and the bridges on the Sumida River are lit up, reflecting in the sparkling water🌈 along with the lanterns on the boat. Ancient and modern cultures blend together. The night lights of Tokyo Tower and Skytree are also stunning, offering a completely different experience from the daytime cruise. 🍱Authentic Cuisine: Not only can you enjoy the beautiful scenery on the Yakatabune, but you can also enjoy delicious Japanese cuisine! Seasonal fresh🐟 sashimi platters, tender and sweet🦀️ crab legs, crispy and fragrant🍤 tempura, and mouth-watering🍱 eel rice… Eat, cruise, and enjoy the scenery🗼, satisfying both your stomach and your eyes. It's so enjoyable! 💰Cost and Other TIPS: 💰Cost: Various packages are available, including the 13,000 yen Spring Package, the 16,000 yen Wakamiya Package, and the 19,000 yen Musashi Package.
