Highlights

1Tennoji Temple and other temples
Yanaka is known as a temple town. There are over 60 temples there and each temple has its own charm.
I will show you first Tennoji Temple, an ancient temple in serene atmosphere and then other temples.
Meanwhile I will explain the relationship between Japanese people and religion. -
2Nezu shrine
Nezu Shrine is the oldest and biggest shinto shrine in the area.
Most of the buildings were built in the early 18th century.
A tunnel-like, long line of red Torii gates is certainly a popular photo spot. -
3local food stores
Yanaka is a foodie paradise of local foods.
We are hopping along small local food stores.

Mana-san is a very friendly guide. I was so comfortable with her fluent delivery. Also, I liked the relaxing atmosphere Mana-san created in this tour. I would like to revisit Yanesen!

Our guide, Mana was wonderful and very friendly. Her well-organized tour was a lot of fun. She had a wealth of knowledge about Yanaka and spoke easy listening English. I highly recommend this tour.

Love art, architecture, ramble-cycling and sushi
Hello My name is Mana, a Tour guide of Tokyo area. I've been in London from 2000-03 to study fine art. Coming back to Japan, I became a tour guide rather than an artist. But I love art, both traditional Japanese art and contemporary art. Visiting art gallery and museum is one of my hobbies. I love architecture, cooking, ramble-cycling (we call it pottering), Japanese anime, especially Ghibli, trees, etc. I am interested in discovering differences between Japan and other countries. I'd love to talk about Japan and also to listen to your stories!!
