This time, we visit Yanaka, an area representative of old town Tokyo. The highland of the area is filled with around 70 temples, while the lowlands are home to an old community connected by countless winding passages. We uncover the history of the town by exploring 3 topics: Temples, the River and Love. The past is alive in Yanaka with its old temples, the businesses that support them and many classic residences that are finding new uses. Join us as we dive into this historic area.
