Half-day sightseeing model course around Asakusa that you can fully enjoy even from the afternoon

Asakusa, a hugely popular spot overflowing with foreign tourists🙏 It’s especially crowded on weekends, but I enjoyed this plan to the fullest on a Saturday, so I’m sharing it with you☺️ 12:50 Meet at Kuramae Station🤝 ① 13:00 ☕️HATCOFFEE 📍3-15-6 Kotobuki, Taito-ku Business hours: 11:00~18:00, last order 17:30 Closed: Wednesdays, New Year holidays Reservation available: 11:00~14:00 A café that’s also popular on social media☕ The charm here is that you can order 3D or 2D latte art. You can enjoy unique latte art featuring your favorite characters, pets, etc., making it a wonderful café♥️ It’s also great that you can watch the art being made right in front of you. Since there’s a two-order minimum per person, coffee and dessert are recommended🦥 Approximate budget💰 About 2300 yen for 3D latte art and dessert. ② From 14:30~ 🪙RAGTIME COIN FACTORY💍 📍16 Kotobuki Central Mansion 161, Taito-ku Business hours: 10:00~19:00 (last reception) Closed: Irregular holidays Reservation required⚠️ They guide one group at a time, exclusively! Up to 5 adults can participate together. 💰Basic fee 6500 yen, with options available There are also simple accessory-making options for children starting from 1500 yen~ Duration⏰ About 60~90 minutes It took me about 70 minutes! A wonderful place where you can create original rings using vintage coins from around the world. For travel lovers, just looking at the coins is exciting!! Choosing coins from your favorite or memorable countries🌎 is also fun! You’ll punch holes and widen them🤜 It takes some strength, but the staff provide solid support, so it’s reassuring😌 Since it’s a private session, you can chat with the staff and work without worrying about others around you, which is really nice! ③ 16:30 Monja Kato 📍1-17-10 Asakusa, Taito-ku Business hours: Weekdays 10:45~23:00 Weekends 10:30~23:00 No regular holidays listed Budget: 3000~4000 yen per person A notable new shop formed by the collaboration of the Tsukishima Monja Moheji owner and the Senbei Monja Sato owner🤝 Traditional Asakusa-style monja🍽 Unlike the familiar Tsukishima style, they don’t make the usual dough ring. The staff cook the monja for you, so you can enjoy it deliciously🙏 From classics like mentaiko mochi monja to Tokyo ramen monja and gorgonzola natto monja, the menu is diverse and fun to choose from! The seafood is also delicious, with recommendations including grilled whole squid and tuna cheek meat. The taste, atmosphere, and hospitality are all impeccable! After eating monja and feeling full, take a leisurely 5-minute walk to Hoppy Street, a paradise for alcohol lovers! You can have more monja🤪, enjoy motsu stew, or eat crepes🥺 to fill your stomach even more🙋‍♀️ You can also enjoy the lively atmosphere🙋‍♀️ From Hoppy Street, stroll to Kaminarimon🚶‍♀️ Since you’re in Asakusa, take a photo at Kaminarimon and then disperse📸 Kaminarimon is always very crowded, but it’s relatively empty at night, so if you want to take photos, late hours are recommended🙋‍♀️ You can fully enjoy a half-day from the afternoon٩( ´ω` )و This is the actual course I toured on a Saturday afternoon✍️ For places that might be crowded, make reservations, and for restaurants, if you shift your time slightly, you can enter without waiting, so it’s recommended🙏 #DomesticTravelTips #AsakusaSightseeing #Kaminarimon #Monja #Cafe #Workshop
