🎐 [Katsushika Shibamata, Tokyo] Time moves slowly. A place where you can feel the breeze of the downtown area and hear Tora-san's voice.

Of course! Shibamata, where the warmth of Tokyo's downtown and the scenery of the movie remain intact. We created a post for TRIP that would make you want to go there with a story 👇 ⸻ 🎐 [Katsushika Shibamata, Tokyo] Time passes slowly. A place where you can hear the wind of the downtown and Tora-san's voice. I felt like I was being told "Welcome back." Even though it was my first time here, it felt nostalgic── Shibamata is a town that makes you feel that way. 🚶♂️ As soon as you get off the station, you will be greeted by a statue of Tora-san and his sister Sakura. This town, known as the setting for the movie "Otoko wa Tsurai yo," has a landscape that makes you feel like you've traveled back in time to the Showa era. 🌿 The famous approach to the shrine is lined with shops packed with the flavors of the downtown, such as grass dumplings, rice crackers, and pickles. It's a street where you can feel the warmth of people, with small conversations and smiles spilling out everywhere. And when talking about Shibamata, we can't forget Shibamata Taishakuten. A solemn, yet friendly temple with beautiful sculptures. Walking through the temple grounds, you can feel a gentle atmosphere that makes you feel a little lighter about your everyday worries. At the nearby Yamamototei, you can have a cup of matcha tea while looking out at the tranquil Japanese garden. You can enjoy **a little luxury and relaxation**. ⸻ 📍【Shibamata】 Shibamata, Katsushika-ku, Tokyo 🚃 Right next to Keisei Shibamata Station (about 30 minutes from Ueno) 🕒 Taishakuten: 9:00-17:00 (open all year round) 🎟 Taishakuten Sculpture Gallery: 400 yen / Yamamototei: 100 yen admission (additional charge for tea) ⸻ 🔖 #Shibamata #Strolling the downtown area #Tora-san's town #Shibamata Taishakuten #Yamamototei #Showa retro trip #Discover on TRIP #Domestic trip #Couple trip #Couple trip #Solo trip #Solo trip #Absolutely free trip##Tokyo #Tokyo trip #Shibamata ⸻ 📌 If you're tired of the fast-paced society, why not try practicing walking slowly in Shibamata?
