Asakusa Diary - The Staff Blog

Like I've written the last time: once a week, we want to give you the chance to read more about what our guests are thinking and what they want to recommend to you, our readers. ^^

So this time, we have Michael from Australia. ^^

Michael is 29 years old and stayed for two weeks in Tokyo.

What Michael likes the most in Japan is especially the Japanese food. Michael loves sashimi! ^^

Do you know, what sashimi is? Here's a picture of typical sashimi! ^^ It's a Japanese speciality and consists of very fresh raw fish, sliced into thin pieces. You really should try it, it's delicious! ^^

In Tokyo he really enjoyed the many temples and the National Museum!

Here you can see, where and what the National Museum is! ^^

The place, Michael recommend to you as hopefully future Tokyo visitors and which you shouldn't miss is Harajuku - because of the Fashion and the people there! ^^

(In Harajuku you find Yoyogi Park and Takeshita Dori, which is very popular for cool and crazy fashion ^^).

Michael has a funny story, he experienced here in Tokyo, for you, too.
One day of his stay, he visited Sumida-gawa riverside.
And then near the Asahi-flame, an old lady suddenly started to sing a Japanese song for him. ^^
Isn't that cute? ^^

Can you imagine traditional singing near Asahi flame? Great experience! ^^

So Michaels message for you is:
"Come to Tokyo! Come to Sakura!"

Hey, thank you Michael, that you enjoyed your stay so much and that you recommend us in your message! ^^
(No, we don't have paid Michael for that! ^^)
We hope, to see you again!
You're always welcome with open arms! :)
Have a great time and much fun with traveling! ^^
Greetings from the whole staff team to you and Australia! :)
