Nodes in this cluster
- Sensō-ji — Go before 08:30 for the precinct without crowds; the grounds never close, the main hall and shops keep their own hours.
- Nakamise-dōri — The shop street to Sensō-ji: walk it after the shops open or at dusk; at 07:00 the shutters are down and it is just a corridor.
